Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups Bisquick
- 1 teaspoon Garlic salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons Dried crushed rosemary (or 2 teaspoons fresh minced)
Dairy and Cheese
- 2/3 cup Milk
- 1/2 cup Mild cheddar cheese (freshly grated)
- 3 tablespoons Butter (melted)
Herbs
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 2 teaspoons Fresh parsley (minced)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare it for baking the biscuits, ensuring a hot environment for a perfect rise and crust.
- Mix dry ingredients and cheese: In a large bowl, combine the Bisquick, grated cheddar cheese, dried crushed rosemary, and fresh thyme. Stir these together to evenly distribute the herbs and cheese throughout the biscuit mix.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gently stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits light and tender.
- Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it about 10 times to develop structure without toughening the dough.
- Shape the biscuits: Roll the dough into a ½ inch thick disk. Use a 4-inch round cookie cutter or similar-sized cup or glass to cut out biscuit shapes.
- Bake the biscuits: Place the cut biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown on the top and bottom.
- Prepare butter topping: While baking, stir together the melted butter, minced fresh parsley, and garlic salt in a small bowl.
- Brush biscuits with butter: Once the biscuits are warm out of the oven, brush them generously with the parsley-garlic butter to add flavor and moisture.
Notes
- For best results, use freshly grated cheddar cheese rather than pre-shredded, which can have anti-caking agents.
- You can substitute fresh rosemary for the dried if available, adjusting quantity as noted for a more vibrant flavor.
- If desired, chill the dough briefly before cutting to make handling easier.
- These biscuits are best served warm and fresh out of the oven.
- Bisquick mix contains wheat and dairy; this recipe is not gluten-free or dairy-free.
