Ingredients
Scale
Biscuits
- 1 (16.3 oz) can Pillsbury Grands Biscuits
Butter Mixture
- 6 Tbsp butter, melted
- 1½ tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 3 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese, divided
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Spray a 12-cup muffin pan thoroughly with cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the muffins after baking.
- Cut Biscuits: Take each biscuit from the can and cut it into 8 bite-sized pieces. Place all the biscuit pieces into a large mixing bowl.
- Make Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of the melted butter with the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and 2 tablespoons of the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until well combined.
- Coat Biscuit Pieces: Pour the butter and seasoning mixture over the biscuit pieces in the bowl. Toss gently but thoroughly so every biscuit piece is coated with the flavorful butter mixture.
- Fill Muffin Cups: Distribute the coated biscuit pieces evenly into the prepared muffin pan cups. Make sure the biscuit pieces are packed snugly but not overly compressed.
- Add Final Parmesan and Bake: Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese over the biscuit pieces in each muffin cup. Place the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and cooked through.
- Brush with Remaining Butter: When the muffins come out from the oven, brush each muffin with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter to add extra richness and a glossy finish. Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mixture for a spicy kick.
- Make sure to brush the biscuits with butter after baking for extra flavor and moisture.
- Serve these muffins warm as an appetizer, side dish, or snack.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.
- Consider using freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor.
