Bacon Cheese Dog Biscuits

Started as something else on a really annoying site. And a bad recipe. Much better. Hell, I’d eat these.

Bacon Cheese Dog Biscuits

Prep Time20 minutes
Cook Time20 minutes
Servings: 50 small biscuits

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons crumbled bacon (~2 strips)
  • 30 grams shredded cheese (¼ cup)
  • 1 large egg
  • 61 grams oatmeal flour (¾ cup)
  • teaspoon salt
  • cool water
  • all-purpose or whole wheat flour

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer mix the bacon and cheese. Add the egg and mix on low just until incorporated.
  • Add the flour and mix until all together and a cohesive, sticky dough. IF it's too dry, add water a teaspoon at a time until you get a good dough.
  • Preheat oven to 350℉ / 175℃
  • Liberally flour a working surface with all-purpose or whole wheat flour. Flatten the batter to ¼-inch thick and cut into desire shapes, gathering scraps and re-flattening the dough as needed. Arrange biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Depending on which size cookie cutter you use, should be able to get 30-50 biscuits.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, turning half-way through. Should be kinda pale as oat flour isn't a real browning kinda flour.
  • Remove to a cooling rack and cool completely.

Notes

  • You can either make bacon or just buy real bacon bits — not the fake stuff.  I use the real, prepared bacon bits all the time as they’re leaner, more bacony, and easier to work with.
  • This recipe can be doubled but you’ll probably need more than one sheet pan.
  • I use a finely shredded cheddar but I’m not sure the type of cheese matters so much.
