Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs
- 0.25 cup Additional Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it into the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the whole milk, egg, garlic powder, and dried Italian herbs.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until a sticky dough forms.
Using your hands, roll small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) of the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each ball.
Once all bites are on the tray, sprinkle each with a pinch of the additional Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and slightly puffed.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
