Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Garlic Butter Topping:

  • 3 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • fresh cracked pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, add flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper. Mix well with a fork or whisk.
  • Stir in melted butter, buttermilk, and shredded cheddar cheese, mix until combined without large clumps (do not overmix.)
  • Line a large baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
  • Spoon 12 biscuits onto parchment paper and bake at 400, until edges slightly brown.
  • Remove from oven.
  • Combine melted butter, garlic powder, chopped parsley, and fresh cracked pepper in a small bowl and brush over hot biscuits right out of oven.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

Biscuits can be stored in the refrigerator for up to four days. Biscuits best reheated when microwaved, since they do dry out when baked again.
