buttermilk

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.

unsalted butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is healthier for cooking.

cheddar cheese

1

Melt 3/4 cup of butter and let it cool for about 5 minutes.

2

Combine 1 tablespoon of vinegar with 1 cup of milk to make homemade buttermilk and refrigerate.

3

In a bowl, mix together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder until just combined.

4

Pour the cooled melted butter into the cold buttermilk slowly while stirring to create small pieces of butter.

5

Add the butter and buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until no dry flour remains, being careful not to overwork the dough.

6

Fold in 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese until just combined.

7

Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, making about 15 medium-sized biscuits.

8

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit before baking the biscuits.

9

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes, checking for an internal temperature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure they are cooked through.

10

While the biscuits are baking, melt 1/4 cup of butter in the microwave for the garlic butter.

11

Mix the melted butter with 1 teaspoon of garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of dried parsley.

12

Once the biscuits are done baking, brush the garlic butter mixture over the top of each biscuit.
