Holy Cow, these Cheddar Jalapeno Beer Drop Biscuits are finger licking good. Beer, self-rising flour, cheese and jalapeños are all it takes!
So one day while making my 2 Ingredient Beer Bread it occurred to me how awesome cheese would be. Then as I was getting the cheese out of the refrigerator I saw the jalapeño jar and grabbed it too. Of course then I was on a roll and thought tiny drop biscuits would get done faster than bread, which meant I could eat these that much sooner.
You are gonna want to use your favorite beer for this recipe because there will be just a slight beery taste. I’ve used both the Traditional Yuengling as well as the Light Yuengling which is my favorite beer to drink. So you can use either a light beer or regular!
Cheddar Jalapeno Beer Drop Biscuits
These are so super easy to make and while I love them with cheddar and jalapenos totally do your thing! Change up the cheese, forget the jalapenos. You could totally add bacon bits, that would be amazing!
I made these as drop biscuits but you could make this as a loaf just as easily and it would be every bit as delicious! Keep in mind this is a shaggy sticky dough, so these will have a rustic look.
