Now, we still ate every one, but I would only freeze the dough if you just wont eat the whole recipe. I agree with some previous comments about cooking them for 15 minutes. Thanks for the recipe!
I cant eat gluten so I sub GF bisquick for the flour. Hope that helps!
Thats so funny! I used 1 cup of all purpose flour and 1 cup of whole wheat flour with terrific results. Wow! Tried these copy cat , were easy n tasted exactly like Red Lobsters Cheddar Bay!!! It might be better to freeze after they are cooked.
I used half and half (was in a hurry and didnt have or make buttermilk) and left out the salt in the melted butter topping.
I just made these and they turned out great! I have made these biscuits about a dozen huh times since I happened upon the recipe last September. Not good So two days later tried again and used t less liquid and scooped as you said in to 1/4 measure
In terms of their shape, I used an ice cream scoop, which helped tremendously! Thank you for posting this copycat recipe cant wait to make them for my kids. I could make an entire meal out of these beauties! And Cheesy! I did change the milk to oat and the butter to a dairy free and still came out perfect and delicious! Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Biscuit Mix has 400.0 grams of sodium. Gently fold in cheese. SO delicious!
I will leave out the tablespoon of sugar next time as the slight sweetness was noticeable. As advertised. Definitely a quick yummy recipe to keep in your notes!!
I made these this weekend and EVERYONE loved them!
See how a store is chosen for you. Split once baked and added a teaspoon of plum chutney in the middle. These were good! No one waited for them to cool and asking for more already. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk together buttermilk and butter.
I have spent years and years trying clones of this recipe, and you have a very good version here.
(I also have put pepper jack cheese in these! The Amounts are slightly off, though.
Oh, the memories.
Did I mention this is an easy recipe?
Weve bought the box mix before and they were terrible. I used vinegar and milk to sub in for the buttermilk, and mild cheddar cheese because thats what I had. Hey thank u for this amazing recipe I made them today and omg they were gone within minutes and I got a lot of compliments on this this recipe is a keeperthank u again, I made these today for Easter.. Ill never buy another red lobster biscuit box again. I try to manage my expectations when it comes to copycat recipes but this REALLY IS as good if not better than the real thing. I made these biscuits last night, and they turned out to be AMAZING! This is inaccurate.
If the item details above arent accurate or complete, we want to know about it. OMG these were so great!
I would seriously eat that entire plate.
Taste was superb!
Can u omit the cheese (not really a cheese fan) and use regular milk instead of buttermilk?
I used an ice cream scoop.
Everyone enjoyed. Thank you so much, I absolutely love this recipe. Not to mention, more tasty!
Absolutely amazing!!!
These biscuits are better then the red lobster ones. I always do this as I rarely use buttermilk so I dont bother to keep it on hand. I made these biscuits last night and I had some trouble getting the middle to fully bake.
Forgot to add had to use up Heart Smart Bisquick mix for the base. Made these with gluten free all purpose flour and although they arent as fluffy as with wheat flour, they are quite tasty.
I look forward to making them again soon.
Yours look amazing, and I cant wait to make some. Ive learned this by trial and error with regular biscuits. I only needed about 2/3rds of the buttermilk/butter mixture. When the tops of the biscuits are golden brown, remove the biscuits from the oven.
I suggest to not skip on the fresh parsley.
Linda, I actually used buttermilk too.
Buttermilk is so easy to make. Do you think this dough will hold up?
lobster I would add more garlic, but thats me.
Thank you!
Again, this is JUST FYI. These were delicious! Thankyou!
Thank you!!! So easy and yummy. they lost the light texture and were more dense.
Experience cooks have personal ideas throughout the comments. Easy, simple ingredients, and tasty!!!
Hubby almost ate the whole bunch=X Thanks for a wonderful recipe!
Since I dont usually have buttermilk I followed what another reviewer said and put 1 TBSP of fresh lemon juice in the 1 cup of milk and let it sit for a few minutes, it works great.
I did use regular milk instead of buttermilk and 3 tablespoons of garlic powder because Im out of control. Turned out great.
This is one of my most favorite Red Lobster recipes.
And light!
Whey based gluten free flour, soy cheese (thats right there is no cheese in cheddar bay biscuits) and a ton of liquid margarine (both inside the biscuits and slathered on top). Im just saying .
Very easy to make and very moist. Thanks for the recipe! You can find a Red Lobster cheese biscuits mix online or in most grocery stores.
Thank you for yet another quick, easy and delicious recipe.
I did scale the sugar back significantly (to 1 teaspoon) because I never detected any sweet element in the biscuits when Ive had them. I never had these before and would love to make them for a party.
It is taking an incredible amount of restraint not to eat all of these at once.
Mix in a teaspoon or two of OLD BAY seasoning into the dough and another teaspoon in the melted butter topping.
Ive done it and results are the same as if I made a fresh batch on that day. Would I be able to substitute the garlic powder and salt for just garlic salt? Do you sift the flour before measuring or just measure 2 cups right out of the package? So can enjoy these biscuits with a meal or enjoy them as a savory snack.
While the biscuits are baking, melt the butter with parsley, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in a small pan.
I would like to make these for a special dinner but want to bake when I get to my destination so that the biscuits will be warm for dinner.
Ill be making them again after winter break because they are so good and hopefully, my entire family would love them as much as I do and my lab partners did. Thank you!
My family loved it, my husband said they were even better than Red Lobsters!!!
(oops! I personally loved the hit of spiciness from the cayenne pepper.
I didnt feel like going to grab a box of the RL mix. They werent as salty as the restaurants but suited us just fine.
1 pouch cheddar bay biscuit mix.
I also made these biscuits from Slow Roasted Italian, and I also thought I wanted to tweak the recipe a bit.
Tasted as good as they looked. I think you are going to find the package cheddar bay biscuit mix to be good.
Luckily it was paired with Chili and we didnt have room in bellies to eat more than a couple.
I love Red Lobster biscuits.
Usually I have the box where you just add milk but I think these came out way better!
I have not made these yet but would like to. Oh no! These biscuits were amazing! Thanks for sharing these yummier than original treats!! Ill let you know how they turn out.
I made one exactly like the recipe, added ham to another, added extra cayenne to a third and added ham and extra cayenne to the fourth. I didnt have buttermilk so I looked up a recipe to make my own and I have to say it was delish! Your daily values may be higher or lower depending on your calorie needs.
I know its a comment section, but this is the only negative comment that I have read so far.
FRIENDS, IF YOU HAVE NO MADE THESE BISCUITS YOU NEED TO MAKE THEM now!!!!! They rose up much more nicely than other biscuits Ive tried and I like that the cheese is incorporated into them.
Everything you make is a perfect blend of flavors.
Good very very good!!! I was so excited when i found this recipe.
Baked them at 425F because I was a bit worried about scorching the herbs. Delicious!
The only change I make to your recipe is to make 1-1/2 times the amount.
These look so good.
Rating Cut the biscuits with a biscuit cutter, place them on a baking sheet, and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. They look lovely on the website, but trying to replicate is another matter. Making another batch today! I love the basic easy to follow steps and the recipe can be altered to suit your own liking. Wowee!!!
Also try making them in a skillet and you get this awesome crispy bottom. When we were ready to eat them I put them in the cold oven and heated it to 450 and started the timer once it got to 450.
Thanks! My family loved them so much, and I am shocked at how easy it was to make them! I added a little vinegar to skim milk and cut some of the fat out.
Oh no. Otherwise, this is my go to biscuit recipe going forward.
They taste great with Pepper Jack! the photos and styling are stunning! Though the outside was a little hard inside was soft. I also let me biscuits get really brown which looked great, but the extra outer crunch might not please everyone.
These are spectacular! The only modification I would suggest is to add 1 tsp salt or use extra cheese. Now Im kicking myself, knowing I couldve been including these in my meal plans for the last 2 years. Target does not represent or warrant that the nutrition, ingredient, allergen and other product information on our Web or Mobile sites are accurate or complete, since this information comes from the product manufacturers.
So good! The recipe calls for 1/2 cup unsalted butter, which is typically one stick of butter. I have to say, they were very easy to make though. They also make great breakfast sandwiches with egg and cheese! Sorry didnt mean to reply to your comment).
Heres how: http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-make-a-quick-easy-buttermilk-substitute-cooking-lessons-from-the-kitchn-185757.
Ah, good old grilled cheese, my familys favorite! My EXTREMELY PICKY 7 year old is on her second one right now and cant believe I made them myself lol.
highly recommended.
(You can serve these at drop biscuits if desired, for dropped biscuits I love to use a cookie scoop so all of the biscuits are the same size.).
I greatly appreciate that this is completely from scratch and doesnt use Bisquick or a similar product. My daughter and I have missed these biscuits since we both discovered we had a gluten intolerance.
They were still delicious though! AMAZING! See our price match guarantee.
Amazing flavor, so flaky and perfect.
Im guessing, Ill have to tweak the temperatures and time to get it cooked.
And although they are good, they are not like Red Lobsters. Or maybe I used a little more than a cup of buttermilk. They were so easy to make and came out super delicious.
I was so pleased with the taste as well as the texture. One thing that does not make sense to me is using unsalted butter and the one thing I think they definitely need is more salt/flavor. Will be making this often!
They werent as perfectly shaped as yours for some reason; suggestions? I have never made a recipe as much as I have made these.
It was the same for the blueberry muffins which was more than slightly undercooked.
These are delicious!
Ill definitely be making this for years to come. Didnt need to change a thing, but any less than 12 minutes and theyre still too doughy. Theres not even a crumb left behind!
The buttery topping is a must! My son asks for them almost every weekend.
It is best to use all-purpose flour for this recipe.
Were actually having these for breakfast today.

MAKE THEM FOR ANY MEAL: Make a Cheddar Bay Biscuit and egg sandwich for breakfast, enjoy biscuits with soup for lunch, or as a savory side with dinner. Thank you for this easy and quick recipe. It was hard to not eat every one of these. Bravo. Have made it over 5 times this month for small group,dad visiting, myself, a brunch today. How do yours hold their shape? I do love me some biscuits and these hit the spot!
Adjust amount to taste of course.
Great recipe!!!! Cant wait to try! Thank you very much for the recipe . Yes, the crepes board has been removed.
Even though I will admit I have not followed it in its entirety yet. After you remove the biscuits from the oven, brush the tops with the seasoned melted butter and serve immediately. But they were still thoroughly enjoyed in my house (even without cayenne pepper). I never leave comments on recipe sites, but this is so comment-worthy. One difference in the ingredients is that the recipe I have calls for buttermilk.
I tried these this evening to go with my slow cooker chicken stew. You can make a preservative and additive-free version when you make these from scratch.
Very good! I used whole wheat flour because of my diabetes. I will definitely make them again. Thank you for the recipe! And so does everyone else Ive made them for.
I have also used a mixture of garlic powder, roasted garlic powder, and dehydrated garlic.
I LOVE using fresh garlic.
Hello! please help!
People are alway requesting these from me.
1 Stir together water, cheese and biscuit mix until dough forms (do not overmix).
I leave the salt as is in the recipe but add 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning. Wow! Tanks! Keep reading and you can get the full recipe down below.
Super easy.
It works for yeast breads, but these are a quick bread and the baking powder does not hold well. So delicious!
I used jalapeno pepper cheese and whole milk. Check if your oven has accurate temperature. Thanks for step by step recipe , Made these over the weekend and they are SO GOOD! I usually dont comment and just lurk on most recipes but I have to say this is the BEST biscuit recipe Ive tried. Thanks for the recipe!
My garlic powder must be super strong because I love garlic and use it liberally, but will cut back a little bit next time.
The biscuits are heavenly! I love Red Lobster for the biscuits but can never get my husband to go eat there. At long last, success has been achieved! Well I am very impressed. I had no buttermilk so substituted fat free milk with a tablespoon of lemon juice mixed and stood for 5 mins.
LOVE this recipe!
Cornbread with Creamed Corn and Sour Cream, Bisquick baking mix I prefer the full-fat version over the reduced-fat version, the reduced-fat version makes a tougher biscuit, Shredded sharp Cheddar cheese I like to use freshly grated cheese, and if you can use the fine grater, it really helps to distribute these even better, Butter here you can use either salted or unsalted butter.
EASY TO MAKE: These biscuits are easy to makeand hard to put down! This recipe is a keeper!
Can I freeze half of the dough?
Thank you for this recipe, I never thought of adding cayenne pepper. It had a hint of sweetness.
Hi!
My family said they were BETTER than Red Lobsters!
Your email address will not be published.
I did make a few changes though after reading reviews. They were so moist that I had to double check and make sure they were actually done in the center. Order an extra box so you can always have a Red Lobster mix on hand when you crave it!
I cut the recipe in half which was easy to do for these measurements and the 5 biscuits were way too big.
Thank you!
Biscuit Mix Ingredients: Enriched Bleached Flour (wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamin Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Palm And Soybean Oil, Less Than 2% Of: Baking Soda, Salt, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate, Dextrose, Buttermilk, Ascorbic Acid, Enzymes, Garlic Herb Blend Ingredients: Garlic Powder, Maltodextrin, Salt, Onion Powder, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Torula Yeast, Dehydrated Parsley, Malic Acid, Sugar, Natural And Artificial Flavors (maltodextrin, Butter Oil), Corn Oil, Silicon Dioxide (anti-caking Agent). So yummy! And great post with sharing your fave boards so fun! Amazing!
Thank you for this recipe!! I had no butter so substituted sunflower oil. Put oven to 400, turn it off then put biscuits in until warm. Tried this recipe and it was SO great! You can certainly substitute regular milk or heavy cream but I cannot speak for how much this will change the overall taste/texture of the dish as further recipe testing is needed.
Couldnt even TASTE it! Yesterday in my Food Science class first hour, my partners and I made them and they turned out delicious.
Constance, if you are not a cheese fan, I recommend using another biscuit recipe. Recently I tried a mixture of parmesan, Swiss, and gruyere cheese. They turned out perfect , wish I could post a picture .
I made these tonight and they were so good! I wish I could eat like five thousand right now. I agree, there is too much liquid in this recipe, and makes the texture more cakey.
Made them on valentines day .
In the past I had always used biscuit recipes that had to be rolled and cut, and they always came out dry and tough. So fast and easy.
One last change I made was to melt only one TB of butter for the topping because I feel like I always end up wasting ingredients for toppings.
Heat type of a person but it was good! Would these taste good at room temperature? LOVE them! Cooks in the south achieve this texture by using White Lily flour.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder, salt and cayenne pepper, if using.
I plan to make more to be frozen for later use. I followed the recipe exactly but mine came out flat as well I even used an ice cream scooper.
You wont be disappointed! I think I pulled them a little too early because of this.
** To note, I did use Silpats on my baking sheets. Subbed smoked cheddar to complement the smoked salmon. When you take them out of the freezer, do do you thaw completely and then cookie cook from frozen?
Wish I had used my ice cream scoop and will next time , Great 2nd time!
Thanks! Im so happy you shared your dairy-free version! Tendercrunchyyum!
So easy to make. Thank you.
Everyone is going to think your copycat cheddar bay biscuits are the real deal! Please use your best judgment for freezing and reheating.
I follow all your boards and they are all my FAVE!
Thank you so much! Just the two of us, so wanting to perhaps freeze some uncooked and then defrost and cook? If you love these biscuits when dining at Red Lobster, you can now enjoy them at home.
I followed the recipe exactly.
We rarely went out to eat as a kid but when we did it was either olive garden or red lobster there werent a lot of choices to say the least : ) Sometimes I would insist on red lobster just because of the biscuits (I never liked seafood so I think this behavior baffled my parents haha) Love that you recreated them homemade! Cassandra, feel free to add old bay seasoning to taste.
Its Old Bay seasoning (hense the name Cheddar Bay Biscuits). Id add more than just 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper next time though, because I LOVE that stuff, and the amount given didnt really give me the spicy kick I was looking for. This recipe SLAPS EVERY TIME!!
Good job! I am totally pinning these so that I can make them for my hubby.

I made these for dinner tonight and they were a hit with my family. You have hands-down the best food blog and I really need to leave more reviews on your fantastic recipes!
I used 1.5 tablespoon of baking powder, they rise beautifully and the biscuits were very light & flaky they were PERFECT!
I used a light buttermilk and they were still great. Tasty!!
Thanks for providing a great recipe! Fantastic. Oh how I love those cheddar bay biscuits! The biscuits were still good but not quite as good as when theyre fresh.
I cut 1/2 cup fat into the flour mix and it was still tasty and soft and had the same colour as the first batch.
Ive never eaten the original Red Lobster version, but my friend suggested this recipe and I am blown away by how delicious these are.
