Biscuit Dough
- 4 cups baking mix (such as Bisquick)
- 4 oz cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 1/3 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
Butter Glaze
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375ºF (190ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and to make cleanup easier.
- Make the Biscuit Dough: In a large bowl, combine the baking mix, grated cheddar cheese, buttermilk, melted butter, Old Bay seasoning, and garlic powder. Stir everything together until a smooth dough forms.
- Shape the Biscuits: Using a scoop or spoon, form balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a couple of inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the biscuits for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown on top.
- Prepare the Butter Glaze: While the biscuits are baking, mix together the remaining melted butter with Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, dried parsley, onion powder, and salt in a small bowl.
- Brush Biscuits: Once the biscuits are baked and golden, remove them from the oven and immediately brush generously with the prepared butter glaze to infuse them with extra flavor and moisture.
- Serve Warm: Serve the biscuits warm to enjoy their soft, cheesy texture and seasoned butter topping at their best.
Notes
- For best results, use a baking mix like Bisquick that includes leavening agents.
- Grate your own cheddar cheese for optimal melting and flavor.
- Brush the biscuits immediately after baking so the butter glaze absorbs well while the biscuits are warm.
- These biscuits freeze well; store in an airtight container and reheat in the oven before serving.
- Adjust Old Bay seasoning to taste if you prefer a milder or stronger flavor.
