Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted and divided
  • 1 ½ cups (about 170g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 clove fresh garlic, minced (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, granulated sugar, and garlic powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, melt 4 tablespoons (57g) of unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Add buttermilk and stir to combine.
  4. Stir shredded sharp cheddar cheese into the dry ingredients until evenly distributed.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mix and stir gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, drop 10-12 mounds of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake on the middle rack for 12-15 minutes until tops are golden brown and edges look crisp.
  8. While baking, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons (28g) of butter with minced garlic and dried parsley in a small bowl.
  9. Brush the garlic butter generously over the hot biscuits as soon as they come out of the oven.
  10. Serve warm for best flavor.

Notes

Use freshly shredded cheddar cheese for best melting and flavor. If you don’t have buttermilk, mix 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through baking for even browning. Brush biscuits with garlic butter immediately after baking for best flavor.
