buttery, cheesy biscuits—very similar to Cheddar Bay–style biscuits. Here’s a full, easy recipe you can follow:
🧀 Cheesy Buttermilk Biscuits
📝 Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4–1 cup cold buttermilk
🧄 Garlic Butter Topping (optional but recommended)
- 3 tbsp melted butter
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley (or 1 tsp dried)
- Pinch of salt
👩🍳 Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line or grease a baking sheet.
- Mix dry ingredients
In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. - Cut in butter
Add cold butter cubes and mix with a pastry cutter or fingers until it looks like coarse crumbs. - Add cheese
Stir in shredded cheddar. - Add buttermilk
Pour in buttermilk gradually and mix until just combined. Don’t overmix—the dough should be slightly sticky. - Shape biscuits
Scoop or gently form rough balls (like in the image) and place on the baking sheet. - Bake
Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown on top. - Brush topping
Mix melted butter with garlic powder, parsley, and salt. Brush over hot biscuits right out of the oven.
🔥 Tips
- Keep butter cold for fluffier biscuits
- Don’t overwork the dough (this keeps them tender)
- You can use a mix of cheeses for extra flavor
