Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 medium, finely chopped Yellow onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup, shredded Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
Add the cooled onion and garlic mixture to the dry ingredients, then pour in the wet mixture. Stir until the dough comes together. If the mixture is too dry, add a small splash of milk, one teaspoon at a time, until it holds together.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out small balls of the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the morsels are lightly golden and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
