Goat Cheese Drop Biscuits

Buttery and cheesy, these cast iron goat cheese drop biscuits pull double duty at breakfast and dinner.

I love goat cheese, but I’ve never been a fan of drop biscuits. Now that I’ve made these goat cheese drop biscuits, though, my mind has changed. I love cooking in my cast iron skillet, so I should have known I’d love this recipe. After making three cheese macaroni and cheese in my cast iron skillet, I was certain I could never love it more than I did at that moment. Now that I’e made these biscuits, I love my cast iron skillet even more. Cooking biscuits in cast iron reminds me of making them with my grandma when I was little.

These biscuits are full of flavor. The goat cheese adds creaminess and just a little bit of tanginess. The Parmesan melts on top, adding saltiness and another layer of flavor. I sprinkled the biscuits with garlic and herb seasoning after baking because I can’t resist garlic. This recipe could easily work for breakfast or dinner. These biscuits would be equally impressive sandwiching a fried egg or alongside a hearty soup. Dropping the biscuits into the hot cast iron skillet gives them a lovely crust while the tops remain pillowy soft.

These drop biscuits come together quickly and only require a few ingredients (all of which I already had on hand). Besides adding the seasoning, I also adapted the recipe to use all-purpose instead of self-rising flour. I rarely have it in my pantry, but thankfully all-purpose flour works, too!
