Homemade Biscuits

I was craving biscuits the other day (totally normal right?) and looked up recipes online.  But I didn’t have exactly the right ingredients for the recipe so I fudged a little, hoping they would turn out.  And they did! Woohoo.  I love when that happens.  These homemade biscuits with cheddar and garlic melt in your mouth.  It’s hard to stop at just one.

Biscuit Recipe

Garlic Cheddar Biscuits

Ingredients
Biscuits
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • ¼ tsp garlic salt
  • 6 Tbsp cold butter, cut in cubes
  • 1 c. milk (I used ½ c. heavy cream, ½ c. 2% milk)
  • 1 c. shredded mild cheddar cheese
Topping
  • 3 Tbsp melted butter
  • ¼ tsp garlic salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use non-stick baking sheets.
  3. In a large mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic salt.
  4. Whisk until well combined.
  5. Add butter and with a pastry blender or knives, cut into mix until small pea-sized crumbs start to form.
  6. Add cheese and fold into mix.
  7. Add milk and mix just until wet. Do not over mix.
  8. Drop heaping spoonfuls onto baking sheet (approx ¼ c).
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until biscuits are golden brown.
  10. While biscuits bake, melt remaining butter in small mixing bowl in microwave (approx 30 seconds).
  11. Add ¼ teaspoon garlic salt.
  12. Stir with pastry brush.
  13. Remove biscuits from oven, brush with melted butter mixture.
  14. Serve immediately.
Recipe slightly adapted from Cinnamon Spice & Everything Nice and the Slow Roasted Italian.

You might want to make a double or triple batch…. Each recipe makes approximately 18 biscuits, depending on how big you make them. And I’m pretty sure that I could eat a plate of biscuits alone for dinner.  Who needs a main dish? Not me!
