Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl with a fork.
Step 3
Add cold butter cubes and pinch with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs, ~2 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in shredded cheddar until evenly distributed throughout.
Step 5
Pour buttermilk over dry ingredients and stir with a fork until just combined; dough will be shaggy.
Step 6
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle.
Step 7
Cut into 8 biscuits using a knife or 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Step 8
Bake until golden brown, 10–12 minutes. Tops should feel firm when touched.
