Ingredients

  • cups (312.5g) all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 cup medium cheddar cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 2 cups (490g) buttermilk
  • ½ cup (1 stick, 113g) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Spray a 7x11-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Add flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder to a medium bowl. Use a whisk to sift ingredients.
  • Fold in cheddar cheese and chives.
  • Pour in the buttermilk and stir until mostly combined, being careful not to overwork the batter.
  • Pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish. Place the dough on top of the butter and use a spatula (or your hands) to evenly spread the dough out to the edges of the pan.
  • Cut the unbaked dough into 8 squares. Bake for 26-28 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  • When done, remove the biscuits from the oven. Allow the butter to be absorbed into the biscuits before serving.
