Garlic Cheddar Biscuits (gluten-free, No Sugar Added)

By Roseywinter @roseywinter
Garlic... cheddar... biscuit? I'll admit when I think of biscuits I don't really think of garlic OR cheddar. I think of plain biscuits slathered in butter with maple syrup, honey, and/or fruit preserve. My mind goes more sweet than savory. But holy crap the first time I tried this Gluten Free Cheese Garlic Biscuit recipe, I was amazed AND hooked. Thank you Betty Crocker. Thank you Gluten-Free Bisquick mix.
My entire family loved them as well, even my mom -- and she NEVER eats breakfast! But I've made these for breakfast 4 times this past week-and-a-half and every single time the biscuits disappeared SO fast.
I followed the recipe exactly as stated on the original recipe page, except substituted a mix of almond milk and heavy cream for the milk.
Here's a copy of the recipe below, and you can also check it out at the Betty Crocker site.

Garlic Cheddar Biscuits  


Preheat oven 435 degrees F.
Biscuits
2 cups Gluten-Free Bisquick mix
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) Butter, cold & firm
2/3 cup Milk of choice or Heavy Cream
1/2 cup Cheddar, shredded
3 Eggs

Mix Bisquick with garlic powder, then cut in butter with a fork or pastry mixer (I sometimes use a cheese grater). Mix until mixture forms large crumbs. Now add the eggs, milk, and cheese and mix everything until it makes a soft dough.
Drop onto a baking sheet with a spoon, and bake for about 10~15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown (makes about 10).
Garlic Butter Topping
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) Butter, melted
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
 
Mix melted butter and garlic powder together. Spread onto biscuits. Let biscuits sit in oven for another minute before removing. Let cool slightly & eat (I particularly enjoyed mine with some grape jelly and honey~ savory AND sweet).

Love these!
