About Cheese biscuit

Cheese biscuits are a savory baked treat originating from Southern cuisine in the United States. Made with a combination of all-purpose flour, baking powder, butter, milk, and shredded cheese, these fluffy, golden biscuits boast a rich, cheesy flavor and tender texture. Often enjoyed as a side dish or snack, they pair well with soups, salads, or breakfast spreads. While cheese biscuits provide calcium and protein from the cheese and milk, their healthfulness depends on portion size and ingredients used. They are typically high in saturated fats due to the butter and cheese and can include significant sodium, making moderation key. Using reduced-fat cheese, whole-grain flour, or limiting added salt can increase their nutritional value. These comforting biscuits are a crowd-pleaser and a versatile addition to meals, beloved for their hearty taste and satisfying bite.
