- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (for topping)
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix melted butter and buttermilk until combined.
- Combine the wet and dry mixtures until a thick dough forms, avoiding overmixing.

Notes
Use fresh baking powder for the best rise.
A few lumps in the dough are acceptable to maintain a light texture.
For extra cheesiness, add more cheddar to the dough or sprinkle on top before baking.
