Restoring Heritage Grains Einkorn Biscuit Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups Einkorn flour (preferably finely milled for tender biscuits)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder (ensures a light, fluffy rise)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (works with acid to enhance leavening)
• 1 teaspoon fine sea salt (balances and enhances flavor)
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (optional, adds subtle sweetness)
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes (for flaky layers)
• 3/4 cup buttermilk, chilled (provides acidity for rise and tender crumb)
• 1 large egg (adds richness and binds dough)
• 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as rosemary or thyme, finely chopped) (for an earthy aromatic punch)
• 1/4 cup grated sharp cheddar or Parmesan cheese (adds savory depth)
• Extra melted butter (for brushing tops to create golden crust and extra flavor)
• Coarse sea salt flakes (sprinkled on top before baking to add crunch and a burst of flavor)
