Savory Cheddar and Garlic Drop Biscuits
These savory drop biscuits are so fluffy and delicious, as well as super easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp sugar (optional - I just added in a bit to balance out the saltiness)
- 1 /2 tbsp cold butter
- 1/4 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder (use 1/4 tsp for a milder garlic flavor or use 1/2 tsp for a bit stronger garlic flavor)
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (start at 1/4 cup, but if you’d like more cheddar flavor - add 1/2 cup)
- 1/2 cup and 2 1/2 tbsp milk (dairy-free or regular)
Instructions
- In large bowl combine the flour, garlic powder (if using), baking powder, and salt thoroughly.
- Cut the butter in by using a pastry blender or the back of a fork. *You can even use two knives if you have to - just use a see-saw motion to cut the butter in* The mixture should look like coarse crumbs..
- Add in your preferred amount of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Now add in the milk. Combine until a soft dough forms. Scoop out 1 1/2 tbsp of dough and add to parchment-lined baking sheet. *Should make around six - depending on the size*
- Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes until browned to your liking. Brush with a little melted butter immediately after baking, if desired.
