Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.75 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped parsley, and garlic powder, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Create a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir gently with a fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
On a floured surface, turn the dough out and lightly knead it 2-3 times to bring it together. Pat it into a flat disc about 1-inch thick.
Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out rounds, re-rolling scraps as needed. Place the rounds on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg to promote a golden-brown finish during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the biscuits are cooked through.
Remove from the oven and immediately brush the warm biscuits with melted butter for an extra layer of flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Savory Biscuit Bites!
