Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 7 minutes (per batch)
Total time: 22 minutes
Ingredients needed:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 stick cold butter
1 tbsp dried parsley
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup buttermilk
How to make Red Lobster Biscuits:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and garlic.
2. Cut the stick of butter in small pea size cubes.
3. Using a stand mixer, food processor or blender, mix the butter into the dry flour mixture until butter crumble form.
4. Stir in cheese and parsley.
5. Using your hand or stirring paddle for stand mixer, combine in the buttermilk. Do. It over kneads the batter; you want it firm enough to form into a mound but not too firm.
6. Spray the air fryer basket with oil and using an ice cream scoop, spoon out a clump of batter and place in air fryer basket. Repeat to fill your basket.
7. Spray biscuits and cook on 380 for 5 minutes. Turn and cook for 2 more minutes
How to Serve Red Lobster Biscuits:
These copycat Red Lobster biscuits should always be served hot! They’re so much better that way. Since they are so savory and already contain a lot of butter they don’t need any topping, but feel free to add more butter to your warm biscuit if you want!
These biscuits are also delicious to make into little sandwiches. Some sliced ham and a slice of cheese tastes delicious, but you could also try turkey or roast beef. They’re also perfect alongside a bowl of soup.
Gluten Free Red Lobster Biscuits:
While we haven’t tried adapting this recipe for gluten-free baking, there IS a Gluten-Free Red Lobster Biscuits Mix that you can buy. All you need to do is add water, cheddar cheese and bake.
