Ingredients
Scale
Biscuits
- 8 frozen drop-style biscuits (8-count can)
Garlic-Herb Butter
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Toppings
- 2 tbsp shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Arrange Biscuits: Place the frozen biscuits flat-side down in your air fryer basket, making sure to leave at least 1 inch of space between each biscuit for proper air circulation and even browning.
- Start Cooking: Set the air fryer to 350°F and cook the biscuits for 6 minutes without preheating; this ensures tender centers with a crispy crust.
- Rotate Basket: At the 3-minute mark, carefully pull out the basket and rotate it to expose each biscuit evenly to the hot air, promoting uniform browning.
- Flip and Butter: After 6 minutes, gently flip each biscuit using tongs and brush the tops generously with the prepared garlic-herb butter to enhance flavor and texture.
- Add Cheese and Finish Cooking: Sprinkle shredded sharp cheddar cheese evenly over each buttered biscuit, then air fry at 350°F for an additional 2 minutes until the cheese melts into soft pockets atop the biscuits.
- Serve with Honey: Transfer the hot biscuits to a plate, drizzle honey over the tops, and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley for a sweet, savory, and visually appealing finish.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and browning.
- Use tongs to safely flip the hot biscuits during cooking.
- Adjust the honey drizzle to your preferred sweetness level or substitute with maple syrup for a different flavor.
- Fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness but can be omitted if unavailable.
- If your air fryer size varies, adjust cooking time slightly to avoid under or overcooking.
