Spinach And Cheese Slab Biscuits Recipes

SPINACH AND CHEESE SLAB BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly coat a 13x9" baking pan or dish with nonstick spray. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl to combine. Grate butter into dry ingredients on the large holes of a box grater, then lightly toss to coat. Freeze 10 minutes.
• Scatter about three-quarters of Gruyère and Parmesan over flour mixture, then add crushed red pepper flakes. Squeeze as much liquid out of spinach as possible, pull into shreds, and strew over flour mixture.
• Whisk buttermilk and sour cream in a large measuring glass or small bowl. Pour into bowl with flour mixture and mix with a fork just until combined. Knead in bowl with your hands until a soft cohesive dough forms (do not overmix).
• Scrape dough into prepared pan and press into an even layer. Using a bench scraper or knife, deeply score into 12 portions (cut down almost to pan beneath). Scatter reserved Gruyère and Parmesan over.
• Bake biscuits until puffed and golden, 30-35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

SPINACH AND CHEESE BISCUIT ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to directions on the crescent roll dough.
• Unroll the crescent roll dough until it is flat.
• Spread the cream cheese in a medium-thickness, even layer over the dough.
• Sprinkle frozen spinach liberally on top of the cream cheese.
• Roll the dough back together tightly, smooth edges of dough to keep any cracks from forming. Once rolled, slice into even pieces, smooth edges again. *To make slicing easier, you can put roll the dough into some foil and put it in the freezer for 10 minutes or so.
• Place slices on an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake according to directions on the dough package. Remove, let cool, and watch them disappear!

SPINACH-AND-CHEDDAR SLAB QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out dough to a 12-by-16-inch rectangle; prick all over with a fork. Whisk egg white with 1/2 teaspoon water; brush over dough. Sprinkle evenly with sesame seeds. Roll dough onto rolling pin; unroll onto a 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet or shallow baking dish. Line with parchment; fill with pie weights or dry beans. Bake 20 minutes. Remove weights and parchment (if it sticks, bake a few more minutes); continue baking until golden and set on bottom, 8 to 10 minutes more (if browning too quickly, tent edges with foil). Immediately prick bottom where puffed excessively to flatten. Let cool 10 minutes.
• Scatter spinach and cheese evenly over pastry. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour evenly over spinach and cheese. Bake until quiche is set and puffed slightly, 18 to 22 minutes (if browning too quickly, tent with foil). Let cool on a wire rack; serve warm or at room temperature.

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in onion and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer onions to a double boiler; mix in milk, Cheddar cheese, flour, and ground black pepper; cook and stir until blended and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; fold in eggs and spinach. Pour the spinach mixture into baking dish and smooth top.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool briefly before cutting into squares.
