Ingredients

Biscuits

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3 tablespoons cold salted butter in ¼-inch pieces
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar
  • 3 tablespoons chopped parsley

Garlic butter topping

  • 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Directions

  • Heat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder. Work in the cold butter with your fingertips until it looks like coarse crumbs.
  • Stir in the milk, then gently fold in the cheddar and parsley. Drop the dough onto the baking sheet in 4 mounds.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until browned.
  • While they bake, stir together the melted butter, ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder, and the Italian seasoning. Let the biscuits cool for a minute, brush them with the garlic butter, and serve warm.
