Easy Cheddar Bay Biscuits (4 Ingredients)
These 4 ingredient cheddar bay biscuits are the definition of easy baking and deliver incredible flavor with minimal effort. The secret to their simplicity lies in self rising flour, which already contains leavening agents, saving you a step and ensuring a perfect rise every time.
The shredded cheddar is folded right into the dough, melting into pockets of salty goodness as the biscuits bake. They are brushed generously with the melted garlic butter, soaking up the irresistible, pungent coating that makes them so addictive.
Perfect for a weeknight side dish or a last minute craving, these biscuits come together in a snap. The self rising flour and buttermilk combination skips the fuss of cutting in cold butter. Allowing you to mix the dough and have them ready for the oven almost instantly.

Easy Cheddar Bay Biscuits (4 Ingredients)
Equipment
- small mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 2 cups self rising flour
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup garlic butter, melted (divided)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425℉. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a large bowl, add the flour and cheddar cheese and mix with a fork. In a small bowl, quickly whisk together the buttermilk and the melted garlic butter – reserving 1 tablespoon butter to brush on tops. Next, quickly transfer the wet into the dry bowl and mix together until incorporated – use your hands to knead the dough together.
- Form a round thick disc and then divide the dough evenly into 10 pieces. Grab one of the dough pieces and roll with your hands until it forms a ball and then place it on the baking sheet. Brush the tops with garlic butter. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

what is butter milk please
Buttermilk is a fermented dairy product known for its tangy flavor and thick consistency, which is often lower in fat than regular milk. While traditional buttermilk is the liquid left over from churning butter, most buttermilk sold today is “cultured,” meaning it’s made by adding lactic acid bacteria to milk to achieve the same characteristic sour taste and texture. It is used in both sweet and savory cooking, including baking, marinades, and dressings.
