Easy Homemade Garlic Cheddar Biscuits
These super soft and easy biscuits can be ready to eat in under 30 minutes!
Ingredients
Scale
For the biscuits:
- 2 ½ cups of self-rising flour
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- ½ cup butter or shortening (I use shortening for lighter biscuits)
- 1 cup of buttermilk**
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar
- 3 cloves garlic, minced (or 3 tsp. if you buy the pre-minced jars like I do!)
To brush on after baking:
- 4 Tbsp. butter
- 2 tsp. garlic salt (–> this is my favorite kind!!)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Mix sugar and flour. Cut shortening into flour with a pastry blender.
- Stir in buttermilk, cheddar and garlic until well combined.
- Drop by the spoonful onto cookie sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
- After baking, place 4 Tbsp. of butter in a microwavable dish. Add 2-3 cloves of minced garlic (or a 2 tsp. of garlic powder). Melt and fuse the garlic with the butter.
- Brush over the hot biscuits! SO yummy!
Notes
** If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, you can measure out 1 cup of milk minus 1 Tbsp. Then add 1 Tbsp. of white vinegar or lemon juice and let it stand for about 5 minutes. Then you have 1 cup of buttermilk!
