Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine onion and butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook until tender but not browned, about 5 minutes. Cool.
In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda, add butter and mix with your fingers until crumbly in texture. Add the onions, buttermilk, ham and cheese, stirring in with a spatula until just incorporated.
I put the big ball of dough down on a well floured surface and Pat down with my hands. I use a glass to cut biscuits out.
Arrange close together on the baking sheet for soft biscuits, or spread them apart for crisper biscuits.
Brush with hot melted butter.
Bake 450F 15-20minutes til Golden Brown. I triple this batch when making them. They freeze well. And are excellent to have on hand when needed.
After I’ve cooked a large ham. I like to make these. These are great when done with big chunks of ham with lots of cheese.

Pour batter, it will be thick into pan and bake until a knife comes clean from the center. I used frozen cranberries which were thawing, it resulted in a pretty colorful batter. I prefer to use fresh cranberries or dehydrated in this. But frozen works.
