These Southern ham biscuits are perfect as appetizers when entertaining or serving for brunch. The best ham biscuit has a delicious spread to enhance the flavors of the biscuit and the salty meat.
Prep. Preheat oven to 475º F. Grease baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
Make the biscuits. Prepare biscuits according to recipe directions. Scoop the biscuit dough with a portion scoop based on the desired size (medium cookie scoop for appetizers or 2 1/2" scoop for larger size). Or roll the dough and cut with biscuit cutters for the desired size. Place onto prepped baking sheet and bake according to the recipe instructions. Remove and split open with the tines of a fork.
Assemble the ham biscuits. Place ham onto the bottom half of the biscuit and spread the top half with your spread of choice. Return the top half of the biscuit to the top of the ham. Secure with a toothpick or skewer if needed for serving.
