Step-by-Step Instructions for Cheddar Cornmeal Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture and blend until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped fresh chives until evenly distributed.
- Gradually pour in the cold buttermilk and mix until a sticky dough forms.
- Lightly knead the dough on a floured surface and pat down to about ½-inch thickness.
- Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
- Brush the tops of warm biscuits with melted butter for added flavor.

Notes
For the best results, keep ingredients cold and adjust buttermilk gradually if the dough seems dry.
