• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 8 strips bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 egg

1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, paprika, and onion powder.
3. Mix to blend then make a well in the center of the bowl and add the milk, butter, bacon and cheese.
4. Mix gently with a wooden spoon.
5. The dough will be wet and sticky.
6. Using a 1/4 cup measure or ice cream scoop, portion the batter onto a baking sheet, leaving an inch or so around each biscuit.
7. In a small bowl, beat the egg with a splash of water and then brush this mixture on the top of each biscuit.
