Garlic Cheese Biscuits

Garlic Cheese Biscuits are light and flaky cheddar biscuits topped with garlic butter. These homemade biscuits complete any meal and taste even better than Red Lobster biscuits!

Homemade biscuits are actually really simple to make with pantry ingredients and there’s no kneading or rolling the dough. These cheddar drop biscuits come together in one bowl and can be on the table in under 30 minutes.

These copycat Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits are even better than the restaurant version and they are so easy to whip up for a weeknight dinner. For a spicy kick, give these Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits a try.

Ingredients Needed

• All Purpose Flour (If you have self-rising flour, skip the baking powder and salt)
• Baking Powder
• Sugar
• Kosher Salt
• Butter
• Cheddar Cheese – Shredded.
• Whole Milk
• Fresh Garlic
• Fresh Parsley

Step By Step Directions

1. In a large bowl, add flour, baking powder, sugar and kosher salt. Stir together.
2. Slice butter and add to the flour mixture. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix butter into flour into pea-sized pieces.

3. Shred the cheese in the large side of a box grater.

4. Add cheese to the flour mixture and stir to combine.

5. Next, add the milk and use a dough whisk or wooden spoon to mix until combined.

6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or butter lightly.

7. Use a large spoon or 1/4 cup measure to scoop biscuits, dropping them onto the baking sheet about 2 inches apart.

8. Bake biscuits for 15- 17 minutes or until fluffy and lightly browned on the tops.

9. While the biscuits are baking, prepare the garlic butter by melting butter in a skillet over low heat. Slice the garlic cloves and add to melted butter. Cook for 3- 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.

10. Remove biscuits from oven and brush with garlic butter.

Serve immediately.
