Olive Oil Parmesan Biscuits

I gladly shared the cooking duties over the holidays, but not wanting to spend all of my time in the kitchen, I sometimes made biscuits to fill out the meal. These olive oil biscuits are incredibly easy to make and pleased both vegetarians and carnivores alike. If desired, you can add a 1/2 cup of raisins or blueberries to the dough. Feel free to substitute cheddar cheese for the parmesan cheese.

Olive Oil Parmesan Biscuits

1 3/4 cups of unbleached white flour
1/2 teaspoon of sea salt
1 tablespoon of baking powder
5 tablespoons of olive oil
1 cup of milk
1/4 - 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking powder. Add the olive oil, milk and cheese to the flour mixture. Stir until just combined. Drop the dough on a greased baking sheet in roughly 1/4 cup portions. Bake in a preheated 450 degree oven for 10 - 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Makes approximately 12 biscuits.
