Who doesn't love a savory biscuit? These are a delicious and simple way to use sourdough discard and elevate a homemade biscuit. Use any cheese that you like, because it melts right into the dough when it bakes, plus the addition of chopped chives takes this to another level.

With a large knife or bench scraper, cut the dough into thirds and stack them on top of each other. Press the pieces down and roll out the dough into a rectangle that is approximately 1 inch thick.
Use a biscuit cutter or a sharp knife to cut out biscuits. Gather any scraps, pat them together and cut out additional biscuits. This recipe should make 8 biscuits.
Transfer the biscuits to a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush the top of the dough with an egg wash.
Bake at 425 for 15 - 18 minutes until they are golden brown on top and the cheese is nice and melty.
Serve warm and enjoy!
