Ham and Smoked Gouda Biscuits with Maple Butter

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Butter a large baking sheet (or coat it with nonstick spray).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and baking soda. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to add the butter, working the mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Stir in the ham, cheese and chives. Add the yogurt, stirring until just combined.
3. Drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in 12 equal mounds, about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, make the Maple Butter: in a medium bowl, combine the butter and maple syrup. Add salt to taste and transfer to a serving bowl.
5. Serve the biscuits with Maple Butter on the side.
