About Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit
The Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit costs $1.99 with 332 calories. Diced jalapenos and cheddar are folded into the dough before baking rather than added afterward, so the heat and cheese run through the whole biscuit.
It is the Texas answer to a plain biscuit and it works both on its own and as a base under bacon, sausage or egg. Ordering it as the bread for a breakfast sandwich is the move most regulars make.

Instructions
0 of 5 stepsTips
- Drain the jalapenos thoroughly. Wet peppers make a heavy, dense biscuit.
- Sharp cheddar, not mild. Mild disappears against the butter.
- Fold, do not stir, so the layers survive.
Variations
- Add bacon bits to the fold for a loaded biscuit.
- Use fresh jalapenos for brighter, sharper heat.
- Build a full breakfast sandwich on it with egg and cheese.
Serving Ideas
Honey butter on a jalapeno cheddar biscuit is the sweet and spicy combination worth trying at least once.
