Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Baking powder
- 1 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 6 tbsp Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter (melted, for topping)
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
Pour the milk into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky and shaggy.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. This should make approximately 10 biscuits.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the garlic butter topping by stirring 3 tbsp of melted butter with 0.5 tsp of garlic powder and chopped parsley (if using).
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, immediately brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture.
Allow the biscuits to cool for a few minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your Garlic Cheese Drop Biscuits!
