These Bacon Green Onion Biscuits make a delicious addition to any meal. Made with just five ingredients, they are just perfect served with a soup or salad, too!
Can we talk about biscuits for just a minute? Really delicious, creamy, tender, out of this world delicious biscuits?
If you’ve visited with me for any time, you know how much I love to make biscuits for my family. They are one of my son’s most loved things that I make, work well with just about any meal you can imagine, and are like the little black dress for dinner parties.
I love to make and serve these easy bacon green onion biscuits along with a bowl of soup (love it with this tomato soup!)or a salad to round out the meal when company comes. The bacon and green onions just add a little extra something to the biscuits to take them over the top without being fussy or complicated.
As with all of my biscuits, I start with White Lily® flour. It truly is my go-to flour to use when making tender, delicious biscuits. Since it is a lower protein flour, it allows the biscuits to rise higher and have a more tender, flakey crumb. It’s no wonder it is the flour that was always in my Grandmother Verdie’s and Mama’s kitchens!
To make these biscuits, I toss together my green onions and bacon in the flour to coat them. Then, I gently stir in the cream just until all of the ingredients are combined. You’ll want to be sure you don’t overmix at this point or you’ll end up with a tough, dry biscuit. And nobody wants a tough biscuit! At least no one I know does!
Once all of the ingredients are mixed together, I turn the dough onto a floured board and gently fold the dough over onto itself to form a rectangle. I then cut the biscuits with a biscuit cutter and place onto a prepared pan and bake until lightly golden brown. Finally, I brush them with a little bit of melted butter and return them to the oven for about a minute and then remove and serve.
Here’s my Bacon Green Onion Biscuits recipe. I think you’ll enjoy them as much as we do!
Bacon Green Onion Biscuits Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 3 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (about 4 tablespoons)
- 2 green onions, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
- 1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475º F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add the flour, bacon, and green onions to a large mixing bowl. Lightly toss together to make sure the green onions and bacon are coated with flour. Slowly pour in heavy whipping cream and stir gently until just combined. Do not over mix.
- Pour biscuit dough onto a floured countertop or dough board. Gently pat or roll to about ½-inch thick. Cut out biscuits using about a 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place biscuits onto prepared baking sheet pan, leaving about an inch between biscuits to allow them to rise and cook fully. Place in preheated oven and bake about 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with melted butter. Return to oven and bake until lightly browned, about 1 more minute. Remove from oven and serve.
