Buttermilk Cheddar Jalapeno Biscuits

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the buttermilk, cheddar cheese, and jalapeno until just combined. Do not overmix. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Roll out the dough to a 1-inch thickness and cut out biscuits using a round biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy!
