Bacon, Cheddar and Chive Buttermilk Biscuit Bread
If you like buttermilk biscuits, you'll love this bread made with the same batter along with chunks of bacon and trails of melted cheese baked inside. It's a perfect bread to serve right out of the oven with any brunch, or toasted the next day with some butter spread on top.
