Copycat Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Adapted From DamnDelicious.net
Notes
For an extra kick, add more Old Bay seasoning to the batter. You can also add Old Bay seasoning or cayenne pepper to the butter topping. Another fun option is to use multiple types of cheddar cheese, depending on what you have on hand. Don't have fresh parsley? Use 2 teaspoons of dried parsley instead.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon garlic powder, separated
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup and 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, separated
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. While oven is preheating, line a large baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, black pepper, and dried parsley. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk and 1/2 cup melted butter. Whisk well.
- Add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir until thoroughly combined.
- Fold in the grated cheese, making sure to avoid overmixing.
- Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. The biscuits will spread slightly as they bake.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup melted butter, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
- Brush a liberal amount of the butter mixture on top of the biscuits.
- Bake the biscuits for 10 to 12 minutes or until they are golden brown.
- Serve warm.
