Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt until evenly combined.
  3. Gently fold in 1 cup of diced ham and 1 cup of shredded cheese into the flour mixture.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together ½ cup of melted unsalted butter and ¾ cup of milk. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just moistened.
  5. Coat the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish generously with melted butter. Use a spoon to dollop the biscuit dough into the pools of melted butter, leaving space between each scoop.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the tops are golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Serve warm alongside your favorite breakfast items or enjoy on their own.
