Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until thoroughly combined.
Using a pastry blender or your hands, cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder until evenly distributed.
Pour in the milk and mix until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make your biscuits tough.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in approximately 1/4 cup portions, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.
While the biscuits bake, prepare the topping by stirring the melted butter and garlic powder together in a small bowl.
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, immediately brush the garlic butter topping over each biscuit generously.
Optional: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and presentation.
Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Garlic Cheese Biscuits!
