Bisquick Cheese Bread or Biscuits (Like Red Lobster!)

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"This is such an easy bread to make just mix and bake, no need for any kneading, shape into one large or a few small loaves or drop the dough from a heaping tablespoonful onto baking sheet for biscuits --- to save time I prepare a couple of loaves early in the afternoon, shape and season them cover with plastic wrap and just keep refrigerated until ready to bake, I make this recipe with original brand Bisquick, so I cannot promise the same results if prepared with a clone --- these are at their best when served warm from the oven, so prepare them early refrigerate and pop into the oven just before dinner! :)"

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Yields: 1 loaf

ingredients

• 2 cups original Bisquick baking mix
• 3⁄4 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
• 1⁄2 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄2 cup water, plus
• 1 tablespoon water

• TOPPING

• 3 tablespoons melted butter
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon italian seasoning (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley (or to taste)

directions

1. Set oven to 400°F (convection bake if possible).
2. Grease a foil-lined baking sheet.
3. In a large bowl mix/toss together the baking mix with grated cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese and garlic powder.
4. Add in the water, and mix with hands until well combined.
5. Shape the dough into one oval-shaped loaf, or even better into smaller oval shaped balls, or drop heaping tablespoonfuls onto the baking sheet for biscuits.
6. Transfer to cookie/baking sheet.
7. Brush the tops and sides with melted butter; sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning and dried parsley.
8. At this point, let dough rest, covered loosely with plastic or a clean tea towel in the refrigerator for 20-25 minutes before baking.
9. Remove from fridge and bake for 25 minutes, or until brown in color (bake less time for smaller size balls or biscuits, the dough will spread when baked).
10. Remove from oven, cut in slices, serve warm.

WONDERFUL biscuits! I used a good aged cheddar the the flavour really came through! They turned out nice and crispy on the outside but light and fluffy inside! Like another reviewer I used an ice cream scoop and made 8 delicious biscuits! Thanks for another winner KittenCal!

Awesome!! I've never had the Red Lobster biscuits but I really don't need to now. These are so wonderful & full of flavour!! Follow the recipe exactly - I was thinking there was too much of the dry seasoning for the topping but I used it all & it was perfect. My husband asked me to make them again the following night!! I also liked that buttering at the table isn't really necessary as they are great just the way they are.

This recipe is awesome! I followed the recipe and out came these lovely, fluffy biscuits. I patted the dough out and cut inch and a half thick biscuits, cooked them for about 20 minutes. The parmesean and Italian seasonings are perfect! I will be making these gems again. Thank you Carol for posting this yummy treat.

Absolutely fantastic - I recommend splitting it into 8 little rolls. They puff up nice and moist. The italian seasoning on top is exactly right!

We enjoyed this bread. I made them into 6 oval shaped biscuits. I keep Recipe #63812 on hand all the time and this is what I used in the topping. I also used Recipe #35950 in place of the store brought brand. Worked out great :) Thanks for sharing these delicious biscuits!!
