RePin Red Lobster Style Cheddar Bay Biscuits here
Ok, let’s face it! A visit to Red Lobster wouldn’t be complete without those mouth watering biscuits! Buttery, flaky, cheesy and garlicky… all of my favorite things in one little bundle. Yummy!
It’s really easy to recreate these biscuits at home! Who knew it was so simple? I’ve made two separate versions of this recipe… one uses biscuit mix (such as Bisquick) and the other is from scratch. While both are delicious, the homemade from scratch is my favorite way to make fluffy garlicky biscuits!
Did you know it’s quite easy to make your own homemade Bisquick as well?! It’s easy, inexpensive and any extras can be stored in the cupboard! Or, try ham & cheese drop biscuits or cheddar cheese scones for a fun twist!

I made these this morning almost as is, I didn’t have parsley (just ran out of it the other day), but I had everything else. They turned out really good. I am going to try these with buttermilk next time just to see if there’s much of a difference. Thanks for the recipe!
Buttermilk sounds like a delicious change, Amanda! Glad you enjoyed this recipe :)
Absolutely perfect. I used gluten free flour because of allergies, it still came out perfectly. I’m over the moon with joy. I loooove red lobster biscuits now I can make perfectly yummy ones at home. Thank you so much for this recipe
You’re welcome Joy!
I made these as written with flour, not the bisquick recipe, and they were perfect. I would only make one change and that it to increase the salt to 1/2 tsp (my personal preference), but they were gobbled up by my family and that’s a good sign. They are extremely picky about biscuits.
