Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
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, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until well combined.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, evenly distributing it throughout the mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until well blended. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender biscuits.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop 8 equal portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Meanwhile, melt the additional butter and, if desired, stir in the chopped parsley for added flavor and presentation.
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, brush the tops generously with the melted butter mixture.
Serve warm and enjoy these fragrant, cheesy Italian-inspired biscuits!
