Cheddar Bay Biscuit Recipe

These Cheddar Bay Biscuits use a buttermilk baking mix combined with sharp cheddar cheese, milk, melted butter, and garlic salt to create a biscuit with a tender, fluffy crumb and a rich, savory flavor. Baking at a high temperature produces golden-brown tops, while a finishing brush of garlic butter adds a distinctive savory gloss and taste. The recipe offers practical preparation steps including freezing dough for convenience and storing baked biscuits, making them suitable for batch preparation and easy reheating.

Description

The Cheddar Bay Biscuit Recipe starts with a buttermilk baking mix and shredded sharp cheddar cheese to make a soft dough when combined with milk. Scooping the dough onto a lined baking sheet and baking at 450°F results in biscuits with a golden crust and a tender inside. Brushing the warm biscuits with a mixture of melted butter and garlic salt perfectly finishes them with a flavorful sheen and the classic garlic-butter taste associated with these biscuits.

The biscuits have a rich, cheesy flavor complemented by a hint of garlic and parsley from the seasoning, offering a savory component that works well alongside meals like seafood or barbecues, or as a flavorful bread alternative.

For ease of use, the dough can be prepared in advance, frozen before baking, and baked later by thawing and adjusting the baking time slightly. Baked biscuits can also be refrigerated for a few days or frozen for longer storage. Reheating instructions include warming them in the oven, optionally covered with foil to keep them soft.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups buttermilk baking mix
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded, sharp
  • cup milk (2% or whole)
  • ¼ cup butter melted, unsalted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt with parsley flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the baking mix and shredded cheese. Then slowly add the milk and mix with a wooden spoon until soft dough forms.
  3. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop dough onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Mix melted butter and garlic salt together and brush over warm biscuits right after they're taken out of the oven. Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can freeze the unbaked biscuit dough by placing scooped dough balls on a baking sheet and freezing until solid, then transferring to a sealed bag for 3–4 months storage.
  • Allow frozen dough to thaw at room temperature for about 20 minutes and add a few minutes to the baking time when ready to bake.
  • Store baked biscuits in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.
  • Baked biscuits freeze well for 2–3 months; reheat in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes until warmed throughout, covering with foil helps maintain softness.
