Baked Cheddar Biscuit Sticks (Crispy, Buttery & Cheesy)
Baked cheddar biscuit sticks are a simple homemade snack that combines the flakiness of biscuits with the bold flavor of sharp cheddar cheese. They’re crispy on the outside, soft inside, and perfect for dipping into soups, sauces, or even enjoying on their own as a snack.
What makes them special is their texture: they’re not like regular breadsticks. They’re richer, more buttery, and have a savory cheese bite in every layer.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional but adds flavor)
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cut into small cubes)
- 1 to 1 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup cold milk (or buttermilk for extra tenderness)
- 1 egg (for brushing on top)
- Optional: parsley, sesame seeds, or extra cheese for topping
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the dry mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Mix well so the baking powder is evenly distributed. This helps the sticks rise evenly in the oven.
Step 2: Cut in the butter
Add the cold butter cubes into the flour mixture. Use your fingers, a fork, or a pastry cutter to mix until the texture looks like coarse crumbs.
👉 Tip: Keep the butter cold. This is what creates flaky layers when baking.
