Step-by-Step Instructions for the Best Cheddar Ranch Biscuits

Step 1: Prep Your Oven and Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ranch seasoning to ensure even distribution.

Step 3: Add the Buttermilk and Butter

Pour in the buttermilk and melted butter, stirring until just combined. (Tip: Don’t overmix—this keeps the biscuits light and tender!)

Step 4: Fold in the Cheese

Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, distributing it evenly throughout the dough.

Step 5: Scoop and Bake

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the biscuit dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Brush the tops with melted butter, sprinkle with dried parsley and enjoy warm!

Tips for Perfect Homemade Ranch Cheddar Biscuits

🔹 Use cold buttermilk – This helps create a soft, fluffy texture in your cheddar buttermilk biscuits.

🔹 Shred your own cheese – Pre-shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents that can affect melting.

🔹 Make them ahead – Freeze unbaked biscuits and bake them fresh whenever you need a quick side!
