Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.75 cups whole milk
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and garlic powder.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
Pour in the milk and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be sticky but hold together.
Using a ¼-cup measure or a large spoon, drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each biscuit.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the garlic butter topping. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.
As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, generously brush the garlic butter topping over each biscuit.
Serve warm and enjoy!
