🧀 Cheddar Biscuits Recipe
Ingredients
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 tbsp baking powder
-
½ tsp baking soda
-
1 tsp salt
-
1 tsp sugar (optional, for balance)
-
½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
-
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
-
¾ cup cold milk or buttermilk
-
(Optional) 1 tbsp chopped chives or parsley for flavor
For topping (optional but delicious):
-
2 tbsp melted butter
-
½ tsp garlic powder
-
A pinch of parsley flakes
👩🍳 Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
-
Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs (some pea-sized butter bits are fine — they make the biscuits flaky!).
-
Stir in the cheddar cheese (and herbs if using).
-
Add the milk and stir just until combined — don’t overmix.
-
Drop spoonfuls of dough (about ¼ cup each) onto the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown on top.
-
Brush tops with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and parsley while still warm.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with:
-
Soups (like tomato or broccoli cheddar)
-
Fried chicken or barbecue
-
Breakfast eggs and bacon
Would you like me to give you a Red Lobster–style cheddar biscuit version (the kind that’s extra buttery and garlicky)?
