With this Copycat Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits recipe, you can now recreate those famous and addicting delicious garlicky, cheesy, buttery biscuits in less than 20 minutes!
Copycat Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits
We don’t go to Red Lobster too often. For one thing, it’s way too expensive with a large family! Plus, a few people out of the group really are not a fan of seafood or fish! Truthfully, although I enjoy fish and seafood sometimes, I only go to Red Lobster for one reason – the Cheddar Bay Biscuits … Isn’t that the reason anyone goes there?!?
It’s a great thing those biscuits are super easy to copycat at home! You probably have everything to make them right now! Now, we can have them any time our little ol’ hearts desire!
Our family probably has them 3 or 4 times a month – and anytime I make any kind of biscuits, my kiddos always ask “will it be the ones with cheese and butter?” They are really popular with my kids! Let’s save some money and make these ourselves! Let me show you how ….
Recipe for Cheddar Bay Biscuits
- Bisquick (or see note in recipe card or in the FAQ section below)
- milk

How to make Cheddar Bay Biscuits

Looks delicious, Jamie! Pinned ๐ Seafood restaurants are one of our favorites, but we tend to over order because there are just so much to choose from which I never make at home {Tried making Lobster Thermidor once.. ugh, did not end well!}
Jamie, these look fantastic! I have to share this with my Mom, because she loves these biscuits – thanks for sharing your recipe! Pinning and have a happy Thursday!

Thanks for posting this! We don't go to Red Lobster often either, mostly because of the cost as well. A student budget, unfortunately, doesn't allow for dining out often. Their biscuits are B's absolute favourite thing at Red Lobster. I can't wait to make these myself!!!
I'm a huge biscuit fan and I so enjoy making copycat recipes. Thanks for sharing RL biscuits recipe. I never venture out to Red Lobster but I will definitely make biscuits at home.
