My jalapeno plants have been thriving this year. While I am not an overly spicy lover, my husband and a select few of my children are. I have been wanting to try some new variations on my sourdough biscuit recipe for a while and these jalapenos came in at just the right time.

I love making biscuits to go with our dinners. They are incredibly quick and low maintenance. Just simply throw all the ingredients together, bake and in 15 minutes, you have a filling side.

How to Make Jalapeno and Cheddar Biscuits

In a stand mixer or large bowl, bring together the flour, sourdough starter, chopped butter, baking soda, baking powder and salt.

Shred your cheddar cheese and add it into the bowl with the other ingredients.

Remove the seeds from the jalapenos and dice them finely and add them into the biscuit dough.

Gently fold in the cheese and jalapenos and knead the dough until they are evenly distributed in the dough.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface and use a circle cookie cutter to cut out the biscuits and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Gently press a thin jalapeno slice onto the top of each biscuit. Then place the baking sheet into the oven.

Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and serve hot with butter!
