Ingredients Needed:
Flour: I’ve used all-purpose flour for this recipe, but you can also use whole wheat or substitute half for whole wheat flour to get more fibre. Baking Powder: to help the dough to rise to give that classic fluffy inside! Seasoning: use a combination of salt, dried parsley, paprika, and garlic powder for the biscuits. You’ll need the garlic powder and dried parsley again for the garlic butter. Butter: use salted butter to enhance the flavor of the biscuits. Cheese: you can use almost any kind of cheese you like, and you can add up to 3 cups depending on your tastes. Buttermilk: buttermilk will give you the flakiest biscuits with the best flavor. If you don’t have any on hand, you can make your own buttermilk substitute very easily! Check out my instructions for How to Make Buttermilk here.

This easy recipe takes less than 30 minutes to make. Full instructions are included in the recipe card below.
Tips and Notes
Cookie Scoop. You can use a large cookie scoop or an ice cream scoop to divide the dough into even portions. You can even just drop the dough into the pan from the scoop! Butter. Unsalted butter will work just as well as salted butter; no additional salt is needed. If you like, you can increase the salt by ¼ teaspoon. Flour. Substitute up to half of the flour with whole wheat flour without much change in the flavor or texture. I haven’t tested this recipe with any other flour, though.
Cheddar Bay Biscuits Variations
Change up the seasonings and herbs. Feel free to tweak the seasonings to your tastes! Add in different herbs or use fresh ones if it’s summer and they are plentiful. Add some heat. Add some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the flour mixture to add some heat! Want to take your Cheddar Bay biscuits to the next level?

Serving Suggestions
There are several ways to enjoy these biscuits. They’re great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner (or all-day brunch – no judgment here)! They go wonderfully with eggs, for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Pair them with my Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole, this 6 Ingredient Breakfast Skillet, or Sausage Egg Casserole. Of course, these biscuits go well with seafood. Try them with my Honey Garlic Salmon in Foil or my Baked Tilapia. Alternatively, you can serve them with sausage gravy or any meal with sausage meat, like Baked Gnocchi with Sausage.
