CHEDDAR BAY BISCUITS
(Originally posted 2009)
A couple of months ago I wanted to make the coveted Red Lobster biscuits (I believe they’re called Cheddar Bay Biscuits) but I didn’t have Bisquick at the time so I made these Cheese Muffins instead.
They tasted great but to simplify things even more (Yes, I’m that lazy) here’s an awesome recipe if you have Bisquick on hand that tastes just like Red Lobster’s. These are grub.
Some versions are from scratch and have Old Bay seasoning, but this recipe has ingredients I always have on hand.
HOW TO MAKE CHEDDAR BAY BISCUITS
Start with your Bisquick mix and butter.
You can cut the butter into the mix with a food processor, pastry cutter, or two forks until the mixture resembles sand.
Stir in some cheese, milk, and garlic powder.
Scoop into 1/4 cup balls.
Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake until golden then brush with a butter glaze.
Just look at that garlic butter glaze.

Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Ingredients
Biscuits:
- 2 1/2 cups Bisquick
- 4 Tablespoons cold butter
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Butter Glaze:
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease or line one cookie sheet with parchment; set aside.
- Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter, food processor, or two forks. Don’t worry about mixing too thoroughly; there will be small chunks of butter in the mix about the size of peas. Add cheddar cheese, milk, and garlic powder. Mix by hand until combined, but don’t over mix.
- Drop 1/4 cup portions of the dough onto the lightly greased or parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes in preheated oven or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.
- While the biscuits are baking, melt butter is a small bowl in the microwave. Stir in garlic powder and dried parsley flakes.
- After biscuits have come out of the oven, use a brush to spread the garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Sprinkle a little kosher salt on the freshly coated biscuits. Makes one dozen.
- Need to use up some zucchini? Grate a small zucchini, about 3/4 cup. Strain the grated zucchini in a cheesecloth or some paper towels to get rid of the excess moisture. Add the grated zucchini to the biscuit batter when you add the cheese and milk.
