Here’s a simple, fluffy, and buttery recipe for freshly baked drop biscuits—perfect for breakfast, soup, or just a snack! 🥖✨
🥣 Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter (cubed)
- 1 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 tsp lemon juice)
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat & Prepare
- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F)
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
3. Cut in Butter
- Use a pastry cutter or fingers to mix butter into flour until it resembles coarse crumbs
4. Add Buttermilk
- Pour in buttermilk
- Stir gently until just combined—the dough will be sticky
5. Drop the Biscuits
- Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop spoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each
6. Bake
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown on top
- Optional: brush tops with melted butter immediately after baking
💡 Tips
- Don’t overmix—overworking makes biscuits tough
- Add shredded cheese, herbs, or garlic for extra flavor
- Serve warm with jam, honey, or gravy
Soft inside, golden outside, and ready in under 30 minutes—truly comfort food at its finest 😍
