Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and rub a 10-inch cast iron skillet with butter.
- Make the dough: Mix flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a bowl. With your hands, blend in shredded butter and cheddar cheese. Then, add honey and buttermilk and stir until combined.
- Shape Biscuits: Place the dough on a floured surface. Shape it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle, fold it like a letter, and turn it. Flatten again, repeat the fold, turn once more, and then shape it into a 10 x 7 inch rectangle about 1 inch thick.
- Cut the dough into 3-inch circles with a biscuit cutter, re-roll leftovers, and cut again. Place biscuits in the skillet, mix an egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, then brush this egg wash on the biscuits.
- Bake until golden, 15-18 minutes.
- Make honey butter: melt 2 tablespoons butter with honey and garlic powder in a small saucepan on low heat. Remove from heat and stir in parsley.
- Finish and Serve: Once the biscuits are done, immediately brush them with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle with flaky salt.
- Enjoy!
