Pizza Drop Biscuits

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

2. Mix flour, baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder, salt, and white pepper together in a bowl.

3. Cut shortening into flour mixture with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture is slightly lumpy. Stir milk, Cheddar cheese, and pepperoni into flour mixture until well blended. Drop 2-inch balls onto the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.

5. Stir butter and remaining 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder together in a small bowl; brush onto biscuits.

Cook's Note:

Substitute 1/2 cup browned sausage instead of pepperoni if you like.
