BLUE CHEESE BISCUITS

When I was a kid, my next door neighbor would make these little Blue Cheese Biscuits for me and I gobbled them up quicker than she could get them on my plate. 

She took canned Pillsbury biscuits and cut them into quarters and then she sprinkled blue cheese crumbles on them. She would pour melted butter over them and cook them and they were the perfect part of my day every time.

The sprinkle of blue cheese was good back then but the struggle was real keeping the blue cheese crumbles on top of a tiny piece of biscuit.  I end up with more cheese on my sheet pan than I did on my biscuit.

Forget little pieces lined up on a pan.. we are going beast mode on these 3 ingredient blue cheese appetizers! I still cut of the biscuits into quarters but when you pile them into a baking pan, the blue cheese had no where to run to!!!!

HOW TO MAKE 3 INGREDIENT BLUE CHEESE APPETIZER

Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees and spraying a pie pan or baking pan with non-stick spray. Remove the biscuits from the can and place on a cutting board. Cut each biscuit into quarters.

Place butter into a microwave safe bowl and heat on High for 1 minute. Add biscuit piece into a medium sized bowl and pour most of the melted butter on top.

Lightly stir to coat all of the biscuit pieces then transfer into a 9″ pie pan or 9×13 baking pan, forming a single layer.

Cover the entire surface of your appetizers with the blue cheese.

Bake your Blue Cheese Biscuits for 20 minutes.

If the outside ring of biscuits is starting to brown but the inside doesn’t appear done enough, cover the outer edge of biscuits with strips of tinfoil or parchment paper.

This will help so that they don’t burn while the center continues to cook.

Once cooked, lightly brush top with reserved melted butter and serve immediately.

PRO TIPS FOR PERFECT APPETIZERS

  • These blue cheese biscuits the best when it comes to a quick and easy appetizer! Perfect for any holiday gathering, game day parties, potlucks and really .. anytime.
  • If you are looking to change up the blue cheese, substitute it with sharp shredded cheddar, gorgonzola, feta, Monterey jack, mozzarella (hello? pizza bites?) or just about any kind of cheese you like.  
  • These are perfect to pop into a bowl of soup or as a side to dinner. Definitely more tasty than just serving up a plate of plain biscuits.
  • If you are unable to find blue cheese crumbles, grab a block of blue cheese and scrape with a fork.  You can also break apart with your fingers.
  • Any refrigerated canned biscuits is fine to use but I prefer to use Pillsbury Grands Refrigerated Biscuits when I make these. 
  • Any leftover biscuit bites can be stored in a zip top bag in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, heat them in a microwave for about 10-20 seconds or until they’re hot and cheese is nice and gooey.

  1. LOVE the story that goes with these It really does take a village. My children only have grandparents in New Zealand and no others – so they’ve been adopted by a few grandmas who love them to bits.

    I hope they have the kind of memories of childhood that you do!

    And, those biscuits? KILLER. I need them in my life.
