Ingredients

Serves: Update

2 cups all-purpose flour

5 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese

4 ounces cold goat cheese, coarsely broken into chunks

5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold buttermilk

4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

1/4 cup (1/2 ounce) finely grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place a 10-inch cast-iron pan in the oven to preheat.

Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl to blend.

Using a pastry cutter, cut the cheddar cheese, half of the goat cheese and 4 tablespoons of cold butter into the flour mixture until the butter resembles small pea-size pieces.

Form a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the buttermilk into the well.

Stir just until the mixture is moistened but still lumpy.

Fold in the remaining goat cheese.

Remove the cast-iron pan from the oven and melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the pan.

Drop 6 mounds of dough into the hot pan, spacing evenly apart.

Brush the tops of the biscuits generously with some of the melted butter.

Bake 10 minutes. Brush with some of the remaining butter and continue to bake until golden brown on the top and the bottom, about 10 minutes longer.

Remove the pan from the oven then brush the biscuits with the remaining melted butter and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Cool slightly.

Serve warm and enjoy.

Yes, replace goat cheese with anything!! Don't like goat cheese, you could use brie.

My husband isn't fond of goat cheese and has never tried Brie. Would it need to be a high moisture type cheese to replace?

Changes I made for health reasons: Hain's sodium free baking powder (from Whole Foods) and Morton's No Salt. Use sharp reduced fatCheddar. Use whole wheat for half of the flour.

Reply what Goat cheese is like. It usually comes in a small log or large log (Chevre). To me, it is like the texture of a cream cheese, smooth,spread on crackers/breads/veggies, but a stronger flavor like Feta cheese. Often it comes with herbs,fruits

I was also wondering about the cast iron pan. Can anyone describe what goat cheese tastes like? Is it like a feta in consistency? Is it a stong flavor that wouldn't taste too good when you bit into one of the chunks

I By making individual portions it is possible to leave out ingredients that some guests may not be keen on. For example if a guest does not like goats cheese it is possible to replace this with small cubes of strong cheddar or even leave out
