  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper together into a large bowl. Mash grated butter into the flour mixture until the result resembles coarse crumbs. Mix blue cheese, bacon, and 2 cloves minced garlic into the flour mixture.
