Ingredients
Ham Biscuit Sandwiches
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for work surface
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. baking powder
- 3/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces, plus 2 teaspoons melted

Apricot Mustard
- 1/2 cup apricot jam
- 2 Tbsp. whole-grain mustard

Instructions
