Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.75 cup buttermilk
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using).

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, and parsley until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the buttermilk while gently stirring with a wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing as this can make the biscuits tough.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle or circle.

Step 7

Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are slightly touching for better rising.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving warm.

Step 10

Optional: Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with a pinch of salt or extra herbs for added flavor.
