These Cheddar Bay Biscuits are the ultimate quick bread indulgence. Inspired by the beloved restaurant version, they’re loaded with savory cheddar cheese, kissed with garlic, and topped with a rich buttery herb glaze. They come together in under 30 minutes and deliver that warm, flaky, cheesy satisfaction every time.
Drop biscuits are one of the easiest ways to bake bread at home, and this recipe is no exception. You don’t need any rolling, kneading, or special equipment—just a bowl, a spoon, and a few pantry staples. The result? Fluffy on the inside, crisp on the outside, and incredibly flavorful from the first bite.
Perfect as a side to soups, chowders, or grilled meats, they’re also outstanding on their own as a savory snack. The melted cheddar throughout the tender dough creates cheesy pockets of goodness, while the garlic butter glaze gives them that signature restaurant-style finish.
