Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, fresh (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing, optional)
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 flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and garlic powder (if using).
Add the cold, cubed butter to the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
Pour in the milk and mix gently with a spoon or spatula until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop mounds of biscuit dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You should have about 8 biscuits.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
If desired, brush the tops of the hot biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy! These biscuits are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
