Cheddar Bay Pull Apart Muffins

Cheddar Bay Pull Apart Muffins

Buttery and cheesy, these Cheddar Bay Pull Apart Muffins are a fun and super easy twist on those tasty restaurant biscuits you know and love! My favorite part is that the cheese forms a crispy crust on the bottom while the top and middle stay soft and pillowy. I think these make a perfect side dish to a meaty main course (they go with chicken, beef, fish – everything!), but you could also serve them as a party appetizer or one as a snack.

Cheddar Bay Pull Apart Muffins

Buttery and cheesy, these Cheddar Bay Pull Apart Muffins are a fun and super easy twist on those tasty restaurant biscuits you know and love! 

Ingredients

  • 1 (16.3 oz) can of Pillsbury Grands Southern Homestyle Butter Tastin’ refrigerated biscuit dough, (you can use a different Grands flavor if you want but I really recommend the buttery one for this recipe)
  • 3 oz shredded 2% Sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon light butter, I use Land O’Lakes
  • ½ teaspoon parsley flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350. Lightly mist 12 cups in a standard muffin/cupcake tin with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Separate the biscuits onto a cutting board and cut each one into 9 pieces (cut into thirds in each direction). Transfer the biscuit pieces into a mixing bowl and stir in the shredded cheddar. Melt the butter in the microwave in a small dish. Drizzle the melted butter over the biscuits and stir until coated. Sprinkle the remaining seasonings into the bowl and then stir to combine.
  • Spoon the biscuit mixture evenly into the prepared cups of the muffin tin. Place the tin in the oven and bake for 15-16 minutes until the biscuit pieces have puffed up and the tops are golden.
