Golden, fluffy, and oozing with melted cheese, this Easy Cheesy Biscuit Loaf is the savory dream you didn’t know your dinner table needed. Whether you serve it alongside soup or as a warm appetizer for gatherings, this pull-apart loaf is all about comfort and indulgence. Think buttery biscuit layers brushed with garlic and stuffed with gooey cheddar. Every bite delivers the kind of satisfaction that makes you reach for another slice before you’ve finished the first.

The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity. With store-bought biscuit dough and a quick cheese mixture, you can whip this up in under an hour. No yeast, no kneading, no rising—just mix, stack, bake, and devour. It’s perfect for busy nights, holiday spreads, or anytime you’re craving cheesy, carb-filled joy.

What Kind of Biscuit Dough Should I Use?

For ease and consistency, refrigerated biscuit dough (like Pillsbury Grands) works beautifully in this recipe. You can opt for buttermilk, flaky layers, or even honey butter versions depending on your flavor preference. If you’re feeling adventurous, a homemade biscuit dough will also shine, just be sure it’s not too sticky and holds shape when layered.

Ingredients for the Easy Cheesy Biscuit Loaf

Refrigerated Biscuit Dough
This is the base of the loaf, giving you a shortcut to fluffy, tender layers without the need to make dough from scratch.

Shredded Cheddar Cheese
You’ll want a sharp or medium cheddar for that signature cheesy pull and flavor punch.

Butter
Melted and brushed over each biscuit layer, it creates a golden crust and adds buttery depth.

Garlic Powder
Just a touch goes a long way, infusing every bite with savory goodness.

Parsley (optional)
Adds a bit of fresh color and a pop of herbaceous flavor to finish.

How To Make the Easy Cheesy Biscuit Loaf

Step 1: Prep the Oven and Pan

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan generously with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 2: Separate and Flatten the Biscuits

Open your refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Lightly flatten each one with your hands or a rolling pin to make layering easier.

Step 3: Cheese and Butter Assembly

In a small bowl, mix shredded cheddar with garlic powder. Brush melted butter on one side of each biscuit, then sprinkle the cheese mixture on top.

Step 4: Stack and Layer

Layer the biscuits vertically in the loaf pan, stacking them cheese-side up like a deck of cards. Don’t worry about being precise—they’ll puff and meld together while baking.

Step 5: Bake to Golden Perfection

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden and the cheese is bubbling. If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil halfway through.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Let cool slightly before removing from the pan. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm.

How to Serve and Store Easy Cheesy Biscuit Loaf

Serve this loaf warm, straight from the oven, while the cheese is still melty. It’s fantastic as a side for soups like tomato basil or creamy mushroom, or as a party snack with marinara or ranch dipping sauce.

To store, let the loaf cool completely, then wrap tightly in foil or place in an airtight container. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, place slices in the oven or toaster oven until warmed through and crisp.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know when the biscuit loaf is done?

Look for a deep golden top and bubbling cheese. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean of raw dough.

Can I use different types of cheese?

Absolutely. Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or pepper jack all melt beautifully and pair well with the buttery biscuits.

What if I don’t have garlic powder?

You can substitute with a bit of minced fresh garlic or omit entirely if needed.

Can I make this loaf ahead of time?

It’s best fresh, but you can assemble it in advance and refrigerate for a few hours before baking. Just let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before it goes in the oven.

Can I freeze the baked loaf?

Yes, wrap it tightly and freeze for up to one month. Reheat in a 325°F oven until hot and the cheese is melted.
