These Easy Bisquick Cheddar Biscuits come out incredibly soft and fluffy. They’re loaded with shredded cheddar and topped with garlic butter for the perfect quick side dish.
Kate’s Recipe Rundown
I love a good dinnertime shortcut, and these Bisquick Cheddar Biscuits are seriously EASY!
You just need five ingredients to create soft, buttery, cheesy biscuits. They are very similar to the Cheddar Bay Biscuits from Red Lobster (who doesn’t love those?!).
The shortcut is Bisquick baking mix. You’ll combine it with milk and shredded cheddar, bake the biscuits, then top them with garlic butter.
It’s an easy side dish that I love serving with lasagna, spaghetti, Crockpot Pork Chops, Muffin Tin Meatloaf—basically anything that goes well with rolls!
Enjoy! Kate

Top tips
- Take care not to over mix the batter. Mix just until combined for the softest biscuits.
- Use your favorite variety of shredded cheese. Colby jack, Swiss, Gruyere, and Mozzarella would all be delicious in place of the cheddar if you want to change things up.
- Serve the biscuits warm straight from the oven!
Ingredients
- You’ll need 2 cups of Bisquick baking mix.
- We’ll add lots of shredded cheddar (or sub your favorite shredded cheese).
- Milk creates the biscuit dough.
- A mixture of butter and garlic powder gets brushed on top.
How to Make Bisquick Cheddar Biscuits
- Mix the Bisquick, milk, and shredded cheddar in a bowl.
- Drop onto a baking sheet (I use a silicone mat so they don’t stick). I used a cookie scoop that holds two tablespoons. Bake for 10–12 minutes at 425°F.
- Mix the butter and garlic powder.
- Brush the garlic butter over the biscuits that are still warm from the oven. Serve warm.
Variations
- Substitute your favorite variety of shredded cheese in place of the cheddar (like colby jack, gruyere, Swiss, Italian blend, Mexican blend, etc.)
- Stir in two sliced green onions to the dough
- Add one tablespoon of fresh herbs to the batter, such as parsley or thyme
- Stir in 3 strips of cooked and crumbled bacon to the dough
- Make this recipe with gluten-free Bisquick baking mix
- Sprinkle a little extra cheese on top before baking.
- Make these into 6 biscuits (instead of 10–12) for large biscuits.
📖 Recipe
Easy Bisquick Cheddar Biscuits
You just need 5 ingredients to create these soft and fluffy cheesy biscuits, just like the Cheddar Bay Biscuits at Red Lobster!
Ingredients
- 2 cups Bisquick baking mix
- ⅔ cup milk
- ⅔ cup shredded cheddar
- 4 tablespoons salted butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place parchment paper or a silicone baking mat on a sheet pan.
- In a large bowl, stir together the Bisquick, milk, and cheddar until a dough forms. Drop the dough into 2 tablespoon sized mounds onto the baking sheet. You’ll get 8–10 biscuits.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- While the biscuits are baking, stir together the melted butter and garlic powder. Brush the mixture over the biscuits as soon as they get out of the oven.
- Serve while warm.
Notes
Do not over mix the dough, or the biscuits won’t be as soft!
Variations: add 2 sliced green onions, 3 strips of crumbled cooked bacon, and/or 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs (like parsley or thyme) to the dough.
The biscuits will keep at room temperature for 4–5 days in a tightly sealed container. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
Re-warm biscuits by placing them in a 350°F oven for 3–4 minutes.
