4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, cold, cut into ½-inch cubes
1 cup (235 mL) buttermilk
Instructions
Heat oven to 450F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
To make the everything bagel seed mix, mix together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
To make the biscuits, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and cream cheese to the dry ingredients and toss together with your hands. Cut the butter and cream cheese into the dry ingredients with either your fingers or a pastry blender, mixing until it becomes the texture of wet sand. Add in the buttermilk and stir until just combined.
Drop the dough into the bowl with the everything bagel mixture in twelve equal rounds. Toss in the bowl to ensure each round gets covered with it. Move to the prepared baking sheet, spacing all of the rounds out evenly. Repeat until all the dough is used up.
