Cheesy Pull-Apart Garlic Biscuit Bites
These cheesy pull-apart garlic biscuit bites are warm, buttery, and packed with gooey melted cheese. They’re simple to prepare and make a delicious appetizer, snack, or side dish for pasta, soup, or a family dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a round baking dish, small casserole dish, or cast-iron skillet.
- Prepare the garlic butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Stir well and set aside.
- Prepare the biscuits: Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into smaller pieces. Flatten each piece slightly and place a small amount of shredded mozzarella in the center.
- Seal the cheese: Fold the dough around the cheese and pinch the edges together to form a small ball. Make sure the cheese is enclosed so it stays inside while baking.
- Arrange the bites: Place the filled biscuit balls close together in the prepared baking dish. Brush the tops generously with the garlic butter mixture.
- Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for approximately 18–25 minutes, or until the biscuit bites are puffed, golden brown, and cooked through.
- Add the finishing touch: Brush the hot biscuit bites with any remaining garlic butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
- Serve warm: Allow them to cool for a few minutes, then pull them apart and enjoy while the cheese is still warm and melted.
Serving Ideas
Serve these bites with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce. They’re especially good alongside spaghetti, lasagna, pizza, or a bowl of tomato soup.
