How to Make Awesome Cheddar Cheese Tea Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 tablespoon dried rosemary.
  3. Cut 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter pieces.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  5. Add 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
  6. Gradually add 3/4 cup milk, mixing until just combined. The dough should be slightly sticky but not overly wet.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
  8. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out biscuits. Reroll scraps and cut out more biscuits.
  9. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
