How to make Italian Herb Garlic Cheddar Biscuits From Scratch
Begin by fresh grating a block of sharp cheddar cheese.
Now you may be asking yourself, why can’t I just open up a bag of shredded cheddar? So easy, right?
Why should I freshly shred a block of cheese over using pre-shredded cheese in a package?
- It doesn’t contain added preservatives, chemicals, and anti-caking agents.
- It melts SO much better without those added caking agents.
- It costs less per ounce.
- It only takes two minutes or less to shred or grate your own cheese.
- IT TASTES BETTER!
After shredding the cheese, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, parley, garlic, salt, basil, oregano, thyme, and cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl.
Add buttermilk and melted butter to the dry ingredients, and then fold in the freshly shredded cheddar cheese.
Use a 1/4 cup measuring scoop to place the biscuit dough on a large baking sheet. Top with a little more cheese and bake to golden glory.
Brush the cooked biscuits with a melted butter, garlic, and parsley mixture. Serve warm and enjoy!
