Cheddar Bay Biscuits

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheddar Bay Biscuits.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C) and get your baking sheet ready by either greasing it or lining it with parchment paper—this will help your biscuits come out perfectly.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, shredded Cheddar cheese, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.

3. Step 3

   Give it a good mix to ensure all those dry ingredients are evenly distributed, creating a flavorful base for your biscuits.

4. Step 4

   In another bowl, whisk together the milk, softened butter, and egg until everything is well blended.

5. Step 5

   Now, pour this creamy mixture into your dry ingredients and stir gently.

6. Step 6

   Remember, the key here is to keep it chunky—overmixing can lead to tough biscuits, and we want them light and fluffy! Using a tablespoon, drop generous spoonfuls of the batter onto your prepared baking sheet, making sure to space them about 2 inches apart so they have room to rise and shine.

7. Step 7

   Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let the biscuits bake for about 10 minutes, or until they turn a lovely light golden color.

8. Step 8

   While they’re baking, take a moment to mix melted butter, dried parsley, and a pinch of optional garlic powder in a small bowl—this will add a delicious finishing touch.

9. Step 9

   Once your biscuits are out of the oven, brush that buttery mixture generously over the tops, letting it soak in for extra flavor.

10. Step 10

    Return the biscuits to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until they’re beautifully golden brown.

11. Step 11

    When they’re done, serve them warm and enjoy the delightful aroma and taste of your homemade biscuits—perfect for any occasion!.
