Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk biscuit mix
- ⅓ cup cold milk
- ½ cup diced ham
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- ¼ cup butter softened
- 2 green onions, chopped (optional)
Butter Glaze
- ¼ cup butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Make dough. In a large bowl, stir together biscuit mix, milk, ham, ⅓ cup of the cheese (reserve rest for topping), Cajun seasoning and butter together just until a thick dough forms.
- Drop dough. Using a cookie scoop, drop biscuit dough onto a non-stick or lined baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of each biscuit.
- Bake at 425˚F for 10 minutes or until a fork poked through the middle comes out clean.
- While biscuits are baking, combine garlic and onion powder and parsley with melted butter.
- Brush with topping. Remove from oven. Brush seasoned butter onto the tops of the biscuits while biscuits are still warm.

Notes
- To melt butter for the glaze: Place butter in a bowl or ramekin cup and cover with a paper towel. Microwave to 30 seconds.
- Don't over mix dough. Fold in green onions (optional).
- You can use a muffin pan instead of a baking sheet if you prefer.
