Have you ever had the delicious Cheddar Bay biscuits that are free (yee haw) when you dine at Red Lobster? My visits to Red Lobster are very few and far between, but I could eat the crap out of those biscuits if given the chance.
You shouldn't have to shell out money to eat mediocre food (but excellent biscuits) by dining out. Making them at home is healthier, cheaper, and oh so delicious.
Also, where exactly is Cheddar Bay? Cause I want to go there.
Whole Wheat Red Lobster Biscuits
1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour (if given the option, buy "pastry")
2 tblsp vital wheat gluten
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup powdered milk
3/4 tsp garlic powder
1 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp parsley flakes
3 generous tblsp butter, melted
3/4 cup milk
1) Preheat the oven to 430 degrees.
2) Mix the dry ingredients to combine.
3) Add the cheese, parsley flakes, melted butter, and milk. Stir to combine. You want this thick and "craggy". The mixture should be able to stick to a spoon when held sideways.
4) Make balls (hee hee) with the dough, and drop on a parchment lined baking sheet.
5) Bake for 11 minutes. No more, no less!
Allow to cool a bit, and serve with a sensible dinner. Or...just put one in each hand, sit on the floor, and eat yourself stupid.
You pick.
No judgement from me.

LMAO....yeah...we eat at Dead Lobster for special occasions (back living in the land locked midwest with no access to real fresh seafood). Every time we are undone by those damned biscuits.
ReplyDeleteThat's me, sitting on the floor, one in each hand. No wonder I weigh a thousand pounds. I did figure out how to make them myself though and do every now and then. But I alwaysd ALWAYS make my biscuits with buttermilk, 'cause my granny said so.
I have a rule that I won't eat seafood more than 50 miles from a big body of water. I guess the midwest has a lot of perch?
DeleteI love those biscuits and my husband and I used to go there just for the biscuits and a salad before we had our son! I make one with biscuit mix that is similar but I brush butter over while cooking and/or at the end if I forget and they are to die for!!! Last time I made them for my parents and my mom said "Why haven't you ever made these for me before?" Umm, sorry, I didn't know that they were going to be that big a hit!!!
ReplyDeleteHolding out on your family...not cool! ;-D
Deleteum, yum.
ReplyDeleteI am eating a batch of my homemade whole wheat blueberry muffins as I am reading this. And while they are tasty. In no way can they compare to Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits.
ReplyDeleteI have not eaten at Red Lobster's since college but I swing by to buy a order of biscuits to go once in a while. I think 5 biscuits was like $2, the last time I went.
I would have never thought about to go biscuits. Genius!
DeleteSo, I am kind of nuts and I just made a batch of these. I know, right after I read the post. Don't I have better things to do? As it turns out, no I do not. These are delicious. I think I may just sit on the floor and eat two.
ReplyDeleteYou made me giggle! Glad to hear you enjoyed them.
DeleteGirl your photos are looking great. Do you have a new camera or just honing your skills?
ReplyDeleteAww, you're so sweet, thank you! Nope, none of the above. My big change? It's no longer dark at 4:15 pm! ;-D
DeleteI have 1 window in my kitchen that I use as a backdrop for my photos, and it's nice to finally have some natural light again.
Made these for dinner tonight. They were really good. It was a snow day today and I was thinking of finding a recipe for these and when I pulled up my reading list this was waiting for me. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGlad I could help. Mmmm, warm biscuits on a snow day!
DeleteThey sound delicious. Bet they would be perfect with tomato soup.
