Instructions

Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a large bowl until evenly distributed. Slice the butter into 1 tablespoon pieces. Mix into the dry ingredients with a mixer on medium-low until the butter is broken down into pea-sized bits.
With the mixer on low speed, add the buttermilk.
Slowly add the cheese and mix until evenly moistened. Do not over mix!
On a floured surface, roll the dough into a 2-inch thick rectangle. Cut into 12 squares.
Place biscuits on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and brush with the egg wash mixture.
Bake at 325° F for 35-45 minutes. Best served warm.
