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 (creates golden crust and extra flavor)
  • Coarse sea salt flakes sprinkled on top before baking (adds crunch and a burst of flavor)
