These Rosemary Goat Cheese Biscuits are soft, flaky, and exploding with flavor. Made with fresh rosemary and soft goat cheese, their unlike any other biscuit you’ll ever make! Perfect biscuits for breakfast or brunch!
Rosemary Goat Cheese Biscuit Recipe
A few years ago I spent a week in Vermont with two of my best friends. We lodged at a really cute B&B (that’s sadly not in business anymore…) that served the most incredible complimentary breakfast. Each morning we would groggily wander down to the dining room to be greeted with coffee (thank God), breakfast, and lots of smiles.
One of the most memorable things I ate on that trip was a Rosemary Goat Cheese Biscuit slathered in fresh strawberry jam. It was soft, flaky, and so flavorful. In fact, it was so spectacular I’ve spent the last two years attempting to recreate it.
Last week, all of my hard work finally paid off!
These goat cheese biscuits taste exactly like the ones I remember eating on vacation!
They’re mile-high, incredibly buttery (and yet only have 3 tablespoons of butter in the recipe!), speckled with tangy goat cheese, and delightfully flavored with fresh rosemary.
The best part? They only take about 40 minutes start to finish. Meaning… you could technically be eating one of these beauties REAL soon 😉 I suggest eating them warm from the oven for a delicious experience you won’t soon forget!

Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 35 minutes mins
Ingredients
- 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Tablespoon + 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
- 2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
- 3/4 Teaspoon Salt (Kosher or Table Salt)
- 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Very Cold
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Rosemary, Chopped
- (1) 6 ounce Log of Fresh Goat Cheese, Crumbled
- 1 Cup + 4 Tablespoons Heavy Cream; Divided
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a large baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper; set aside.
In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper; whisk well to combine. Using a large cheese grater shred the butter into the dry ingredients; use your fingertips to rub the butter into the mix, stopping when the mixture is a coarse meal. Stir in the rosemary, then add in the goat cheese and 1 cup + 3 Tablespoons of the cream; stir with a fork just until a messy (sticky) ball is formed. Turn the dough out onto a generously floured surface and knead (with very floured hands) until the dough has been worked into a ball; about 6-7 times should do it. Pat the ball down into a 1" thick round, then use a biscuit cutter to cut out as many rounds as possible, re-rolling the scraps as needed.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, brush each one with a little of the remaining cream, and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Eat at once! These are really good with butter and strawberry jam!

I like to bake, but I’m not a “good baker.” These were easy and delicious! Mine were not beautiful but, gosh, they were delicious! I realized after the fact that I added 8oz of goat cheese and I think I added about a half teaspoon more of baking powder than I should have, but these still worked out so well! Thank you!!Reply

Just made these and they’re so yummy! I substituted sour cream with a splash of milk to thin for cream. Worked great except for the brushing on top because they didn’t brown and get crunchy. Still outstanding. I am keeping this recipe.

These biscuits are amazing. Made them once and they were FANTASTIC. But make sure you use the right baking powder? I’ve made them 3 times and I guess the second 2 times I used a baking powder that made them taste awful. Am I using the wrong baking powder? I can’t remember what I used for the first delicious batch but the second and third I used double acting baking powder and they tasted very bitter. I don’t think I made any other mistakes as I followed the recipe exactly but the only thing I can think of is the baking powder. Thank you for this delicious recipe. I will try again!

Try a different baking powder, Rumford is a good brand. Avoid baking powders with sodium aluminum phosphate. My spouse ran into this when cooking pancakes.
I haven’t tried making this recipe yet but it looks good. It would be nice to have a good alternative to the cream ingredient by the author, whether half and half or something else.

Mine turned out quite flat compared to yours but still taste great. Any thoughts on where I most likely messed up in the process (full disclosure: I’m not much of a baker but trying to improve!)?

Love this recipe. We have made it multiple times – I now keep goat cheese on hand to add the biscuits into many meals.Reply

Would it be possible to make them smaller? I want to make them for thanksgiving but with so much other food I want a smaller portion size. Not sure how that would effect bake time!
