Ingredients
18 servings
- •4 slices bacon, or more to taste
- •2 cups all-purpose flour
- •1 tablespoon baking powder
- •1 teaspoon baking soda
- •½ teaspoon salt
- •5 tablespoons shortening
- •1 cup buttermilk
- •1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Let cool enough to handle; crumble.
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and cut in shortening until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and stir just enough to form a ball. Fold in crumbled bacon and Cheddar cheese.
- Drop heaping tablespoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve immediately.
