Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon 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, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
Cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Add the milk to the mixture and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense biscuits.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop 8 portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
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 topping by combining the melted butter, chopped parsley, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, immediately brush the butter topping over each biscuit using a pastry brush.
Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best flavor and texture.
