Green Onion Garlic Cheddar Biscuits
October 14, 2009 | Print | E-mail | Filed under biscuits, cheese, garlic, onion
These biscuits are wonderful because they’re fluffy yet hearty, homemade yet quick to make, and very, very versatile – you can pretty much put anything in them that you want! Don’t like green onions? Try chives or rosemary. Want them for breakfast? Throw in some bacon and a little maple syrup. I love ‘em because they’re a perfect companion to chili. But you can toss in whatever your heart desires – the possibilities are endless!
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp whole milk
- 4 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 3-4 minced garlic cloves
- 1/2 cup finely minced green onions
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in the shortening with a couple of forks or a pastry blender.
In a small bowl, combine the milk, oil, and egg, whisking gently until well-combined.
Chop up the green onion and garlic.
In a large bowl, mix together the dry and wet ingredients.
Stir in the garlic, onion, and cheese.
Spoon the batter into a greased muffin tin.
Bake about 20 minutes.
Serve ‘em while they’re hot!

You are a woman after my own heart! Cheddar biscuit are one of my all time favorite guilty pleasures. I only make them occasionally because I can sit down and eat half a batch at once!
Lovely photos and recipe!

These look like nothing short of heaven. LOOK at that moist crumb. I want to make these to sop up Beef Bourguignon broth or beef stew.

These look really yummy. You’ve reminded me to bake my favorite imitation “Red Lobster” garlic cheddar biscuits. I think I’ll give them a spin by combining your recipe into mine. Can’t wait to see the results!

ok, so I made these last night for dinner…they were really good! I omitted the green onions (didn’t have any) and just used the cheese and garlic and they were gooooood! Next time I will add a bit more salt ~ I’m a salty girl
~ but my family devoured them! I bet you’re right, you could do just about anything with these guys! Thanks for the keeper!
