Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Start by dicing your cold unsalted butter into 1/4-inch cubes and place them in the freezer to chill.
- In a stand mixer bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, black pepper, minced sage, and grated Gruyere cheese. Whisk these together.
- Slowly add the chilled butter cubes to the bowl and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually pour in the cold buttermilk and heavy cream while mixing, until the dough just starts to come together.
- Lightly flour your work surface, transfer the dough, and gently press it into an 8x11 inch rectangle. Fold into thirds like a letter, repeating this three more times, then roll into a 9-inch square, about 1 inch thick.
- Cut the dough into 9 squares or preferred shapes, place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and refrigerate for about 45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F. Brush the tops of the chilled biscuits with heavy cream and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Bake for 18-20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
