Cheddar Cheese and Rosemary Biscuits

Share or Save for Later

Biscuits are a perfect accompaniment to any meal in my opinion. They pair up magnificently with all foods and can be made very simply. Many  biscuits involve kneading and raising the dough, then rolling it out to the exact width and then baking.

For me, that is just too much work. I like a biscuit that is easy to make, does not take a whole lot of time.

These biscuits are similar to Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits. However, these, to me, taste better and are so much quicker than waiting for an order at a restaurant.

This recipe is easy to double so that you have enough biscuits that you can place some in the freezer for another meal.

Frequently Asked Questions:

            Do I have to use Rosemary?

Rosemary should really be listed as optional. I will say though, the Rosemary adds a delicate flavor to the cheddar biscuits that is surprisingly delicious. I think you should at least try it according to the recipe. You could use different herbs if you would like.

            How do I store these biscuits?

These biscuits can be placed into a ziploc bag and left on the counter for up to 3 days. If stored in the refrigerator, in a ziploc bag, they will last for 5 days.

            Can I freeze these biscuits?

Yes, these biscuits can be frozen. Be sure that the biscuits are in an airtight container or in a freezer safe container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
