Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1/2 cup lump crab meat drained and chopped
- For the Lemon Butter Sauce:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Fresh parsley chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture and cut it in with a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and Old Bay seasoning.
- Gradually add the buttermilk and mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped crab meat, being careful not to break it apart too much.
- Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming about 10-12 biscuits.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
- While the biscuits bake, prepare the lemon butter sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt.
- Once the biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
