Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup butter (melted)
Topping
- 2 tbsp butter (melted)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp parsley (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) to ensure it is at the right temperature for baking the biscuits.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until evenly mixed.
- Add cheese and liquids: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, milk, and melted butter into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits fluffy.
- Form biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow for expansion during baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the biscuits for 10 to 12 minutes or until they turn a golden brown color on top.
- Prepare topping: While biscuits bake, mix melted butter, garlic powder, and chopped parsley to create the garlic butter topping.
- Brush topping: Once the biscuits are baked and still warm, immediately brush the garlic butter topping over each biscuit to soak in flavor.
- Serve: Serve the biscuits warm for the best texture and flavor experience.
Notes
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough; overmixing results in denser biscuits rather than fluffy ones.
- Serving the biscuits warm ensures they are soft, buttery, and at their best texture.
