Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.75 cups Buttermilk
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder (for topping)
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (melted, for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the buttermilk into the bowl and gently stir until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a spoon or a medium-sized cookie scoop, drop about 2-tablespoon portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the garlic butter topping by combining the melted butter with garlic powder and chopped parsley.
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, immediately brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture using a pastry brush.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy as a savory snack. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
