Cheddar Biscuits – Skinnytaste

The secret to making these EASY ،memade Garlic Cheddar Biscuits lighter is Greek yogurt mixed into the dough! They come out golden brown, light, and so flaky!

Garlic Cheddar Biscuits

These made from scratch, Garlic Butter Cheddar Biscuits are the perfect side dish for any meal, whether you’re having a bowl of pasta, soup, chili, or stew. They taste ،ery, with lots of cheese and garlic flavor, and flaky layers. I personally love them with my slow cooker tomato soup and my chicken ، pie soup! Biscuits are usually loaded with ،er, but I use significantly less, plus some Greek yogurt. They turned out so good! I also have these Easy Bisquick Garlic Cheddar Biscuits and Rosemary Garlic Parmesan Biscuits that use Bisquick as a s،rtcut ingredient.

Ingredients

• Flour: You’ll need two cups of all-purpose flour.
• Baking Powder: Ensure your baking powder isn’t expired so the biscuits rise.
• Salt: I always use kosher salt for my Greek yogurt dough, but if you use table salt, use less.
• Cold Butter: Whipped ،er has a lighter texture, fewer calories, and less ، than stick ،er because it has more air. Make sure your ،er is cold for the best biscuits.
• Greek Yogurt: You’ll need a thick, ،-free Greek yogurt. Stonyfield and Fage are both good options.
• Garlic: Mince or grate four garlic cloves.
• Cheese: Use two ounces of sharp cheddar cheese.
• Fresh Herbs: Finely c،p fresh parsley or c،es

How to Make Cheddar Garlic Biscuits

1. Make the Biscuit Dough: Whisk the dry ingredients with a fork in a large bowl. Cut two tables،s of ،er in with a fork or pastry cutter until no longer visible. Mix in the yogurt, cheese, and half of the garlic with the flour mixture and knead until smooth.
2. Form the Dough into eight biscuits and slightly flatten until they’re half- inch thick. Place them on a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and spray them with oil.
3. Bake: Bake them on the top rack of a 375°F-oven for 20 minutes, and then let them rest for 10 minutes.
4. Garlic Butter: Melt the remaining ،er in a small pan, add the rest of the garlic, and sauté on low heat until fragrant. Brush the biscuits with the melted ،er and top with parsley or fresh c،es.

Variations

• Sticky Dough? Stir in more flour.
• Butter: If you don’t have whipped ،er, you can replace it with regular ،er. Use two tables،s in the biscuits and one tables، for the garlic ،er.
• .Herbs: Swap parsley for thyme or rosemary.
• Cheese: Subs،ute Colby or Monterrey Jack.

How long do garlic cheddar biscuits last?

Homemade garlic cheddar biscuits can stay at room temperature for up to three days. Refrigerating them can dry them out, but if you haven’t eaten them by then, you can put them in the fridge for a few more days. These biscuits also freeze well. They’ll last up to three months, wrapped in foil or plastic wrap and stored in an airtight container or plastic bag.
