Basic Ingredients

There is nothing fancy here, just simple ingredients combined for a lovely flavor and texture.

Baking Mix

You can use your homemade baking mix or one from the grocery store. Something simple and flavorful is all you need.

Milk

Use whatever milk you have in the fridge for these biscuits.

Buttermilk will add an additional layer of flavor if you have it. Feel free to sour milk with vinegar if you want, but again plain milk works just fine.

Cheese

Parmesan cheese works delightfully well but you could use most any cheese here with great results. Substitute cheddar, gouda, pepper jack, etc. Use whatever you like best and prefer.

Herbs

The recipe as written includes Italian seasoning and garlic powder. You could use any combination of herbs you like most. Use sage, thyme, etc. Onion powder would also work. Add more or less to taste.

How to Bake

It’s easy to bake these in an ungreased cast iron pan. Though, it is likely that most any pan or even a baking sheet would work. Simply drop the batter in even sized dollops onto the pan.

For a Crowd

The recipe as written makes 10 medium biscuits. If you’re serving a crowd, the recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to have more on hand.

How to Serve

Serve the warm biscuits alongside soups or salads for a more filling but still light meal.

They would be great on a brunch or breakfast buffet alongside eggs and bacon, if you want something a bit different than plain biscuits.

Serve with any pasta dish instead of yeasted bread for something unusual and delicious.

You could, of course, put the biscuits in a basket for serving, but it also lovely to serve them straight from the cast iron skillet for a bit of rustic flair.

How to Store

Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container or plastic bag at room temperature. They should stay fresh for about 3 days.

These biscuits are definitely best served fresh and don’t retain their texture or flavor for long.

You could freeze leftovers but again they are best eaten within a few days.
