Savory Oat & Cheese Biscuits

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Cakes and Desserts
These biscuits are for those who love tradition but are open to new textures. Adding rolled oats not only increases fiber but lends a nutty, distinct character to the dough. Since oats absorb a lot of moisture, the dough requires slightly different handling than a pure flour version, but the result is wonderfully crumbly.

Instructions

1 ✓

Dissolve the sugar in the warm milk, sprinkle the yeast on top, and let it bloom for 10 minutes.

Tip: The yeast is ready when the surface becomes frothy.
2 ✓

Mix the flour with the oats and salt, then cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Tip: The oats will absorb moisture later, so don't worry if the dough feels slightly soft at first.
3 ✓

Add the egg, sour cream, half of the cheese, and the yeast mixture. Knead into a pliable dough.

Tip: Work quickly to prevent the butter from melting from the warmth of your hands.
4 ✓

Cover and let rise for 40 minutes. Roll out the dough, sprinkle with remaining cheese, and fold it (top down, bottom up, sides to center).

Tip: Folding (laminating) creates flaky layers.
5 ✓

Rest for 20 minutes, then roll out to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with a biscuit cutter, brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle with oats.

Tip: The egg wash provides shine and acts as glue for the topping.
6 ✓

Bake in a 350°F (180°C) oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Tip: Cool on a wire rack to prevent the bottom from getting soggy.

Recipe FAQ

Why are the biscuits too hard?
Oats absorb more liquid than flour. Next time, add a splash more milk or sour cream to the dough.
