SERVINGS: 11 BISCUITS

Ingredients  

  • ▢2 cups all purpose flour
  • ▢1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • ▢1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • ▢2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • ▢3/4 teaspoon salt
  • ▢1 cup buttermilk
  • ▢1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • ▢2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Garlic Butter Topping:

  • ▢3 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • ▢1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ▢1 Tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Whisk together the melted butter and buttermilk. Combine with the dry ingredients until incorporated. It will make a thick dough. Fold in the cheddar cheese.
  • Measure out each biscuit in a ¼ cup measuring cup. The measuring cup worked great for packing the dough into the cup and spooning the dough out onto the baking sheet. It made perfect round biscuits.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes in preheated oven until golden brown. Combine garlic butter topping ingredients and brush onto each biscuit. Makes 11 biscuits.
