Copycat Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Description
The dough combines all-purpose flour, baking powder, garlic powder, sugar, and salt with cold buttermilk and melted butter, which creates a textured batter holding shredded cheddar cheese. The biscuits are portioned using a 1/4 cup measure or scoop onto a prepared baking sheet to ensure even baking and uniform size.
Baked at a high temperature, they develop a golden crust and soft, cheesy crumb inside. The final step of brushing on a melted butter mixture with garlic and onion powders and parsley immediately after baking enriches each biscuit with additional aroma and moisture.
These biscuits can accompany soups, salads, or serve as a savory snack, adding a comforting cheesy element to a meal.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup buttermilk cold
- 1 - 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
Melted Butter Topping
- 1/4 cup butter melted, unsalted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- onion powder pinch
- kosher salt pinch
- 1/2 - 1 Tbsp parsley fresh, minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Melt 1/2 cup butter and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder and salt. Whisk to combine well.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine buttermilk with melted butter. Mixture should look clumpy.
- Pour buttermilk/butter into the flour mixture and stir until just combined and no flour streaks remain. Fold in shredded cheese.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup, a 2 oz cookie scoop, or even a regular spoon to scoop approximately 3-4 Tbsp of batter onto prepared baking sheet, leaving an inch or two in-between each biscuit.
- Bake 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- While biscuits are baking, combined topping ingredients (1/4 cup melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and parsley).
- Once biscuits are removed from the oven, immediately brush with the butter topping.
