Servings:16quantities adjust to match

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 6 oz cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 4 oz unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
  • 3 tsp garlic powder, divided
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and 2 tsp of the garlic powder together in a large bowl.
  3. Rub the cold butter into the flour with your fingertips, or cut it in with a pastry cutter, until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces remaining.
  4. Stir in the cheddar, then pour in the milk and mix with a spoon just until a soft, shaggy dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Drop 16 heaped scoops of dough onto the tray, spacing them a few centimetres apart.
  6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until risen and golden on top.
  7. Stir the remaining 1 tsp garlic powder and the parsley into the melted butter. Brush generously over the hot biscuits and serve warm.
