Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (for topping)
1/4 teaspoon salt (for topping)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent the biscuits from sticking.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Whisk the dry ingredients together until evenly incorporated.
Cut in the Butter:
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. You want the butter to remain in small pea-sized pieces to create the flakiness in the biscuits.
