Servings 9 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1¾ cups buttermilk
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp chives
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • To a glass baking dish, melt butter directly in the dish. This can either be done in the microwave or in your oven during pre-heating.
  • Pre-heat your oven to 450℉
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
  • Slowly add in buttermilk and fold it in. Once almost combined, add in cheddar and chives. Once complete, dough should be sticky, but not runny.
  • Put dough into the baking dish. Spread it out to touch all corners. If some of the melted butter touches the top of the dough, its completely fine.
  • Using a knife, cut 9 biscuits into the dough.
  • Bake for 28-30 minutes. When the 28 minutes are up, butter will still be bubbling around the perimeter. This is normal.
  • Allow the remaining butter about 10 minutes to absorb into the biscuits and enjoy!
