Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.33 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 0.25 cup buttermilk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon parsley, dried
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder for topping
- 0.25 teaspoon salt for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, and garlic powder until well combined.
Cut the 0.33 cup cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the flour mixture and toss to coat the cheese pieces with flour.
Pour in the whole milk and buttermilk, stirring gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop mounds of dough (about 1/4 cup each) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops of the biscuits are lightly golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, melt 0.25 cup of unsalted butter and stir in the dried parsley, additional garlic powder, and salt for topping.
As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, generously brush the melted butter mixture over the tops.
Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade Cheddar Bay Biscuits warm.
