Ingredients

Scale

Biscuit Dough

  • 2 cups biscuit mix (or gluten-free biscuit mix for gluten-free option)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter

Cheese

  • 1 to 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice: mozzarella, pepper jack, gouda)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (rosemary, thyme, chives) or pinch of garlic powder
  • 1 diced jalapeño or 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes for spice
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, ham, or sautéed vegetables

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and gather all ingredients to ensure a smooth and efficient cooking process.
  2. Mix the Biscuit Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix, milk, and melted butter. Stir just until blended to keep the biscuits light and fluffy; avoid overmixing.
  3. Add the Cheese: Fold the shredded cheese evenly into the dough, making sure to distribute the cheese throughout for gooey pockets in every bite.
  4. Transfer to Loaf Pan: Grease a loaf pan well and spoon the cheese biscuit dough inside, spreading it evenly to promote uniform baking and browning.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf is cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the loaf cool slightly to allow the cheese to set, then slice and serve warm for the best melty cheese experience.

Notes

  • Use sharp cheese for more pronounced flavor that balances the buttery biscuits.
  • Do not overmix the dough to maintain an airy, tender texture.
  • Grease the loaf pan well to prevent sticking and ease removal after baking.
  • Monitor the baking time closely to avoid dryness or overcooking.
  • Allow the loaf to rest briefly after baking for cleaner slicing and perfect melty cheese.
