Let’s walk through the steps to bake these scrumptious biscuits:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the chilled, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This step reminds me of making tortillas with my abuela, where the feel of the dough was just as important as the ingredients themselves.
4. Stir in the cooked bacon and diced apple until evenly distributed.
5. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk and honey. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky.
6. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Be careful not to overwork the dough, as this can result in tough biscuits.
7. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown. Let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

These steps are simple and straightforward, ensuring that anyone, regardless of their kitchen experience, can enjoy the process as much as the final product.
