I absolutely love this recipe when I want a fast homemade bread to serve with dinner, breakfast or lunch! This recipe makes a dozen biscuits. Cooking for a crowd? Simply double the recipe.

What ingredients do I need to make quick biscuits?

All-Purpose Flour – You can use regular bleached or unbleached all purpose flour or bread flour in this recipe.

Baking Powder – Assists in the rising process.

Salt – I almost always use sea salt in my recipes but you can use your favorite cooking salt.

Cold Butter – Salted or unsalted butter both work great.

Mayonnaise – Adds a delicious flavor to the biscuits. You can use your favorite brand. My favorite is Best Foods.

Milk – Whole milk or low fat milk both work great in this recipe.

What tools do I need for this recipe?

  • Large mixing bowl – To mix up your quick biscuits.
  • Measuring spoons and cups – For properly measuring all of the ingredients.
  • Cutting board – To cut the butter into cubes.
  • Knife – Cutting butter into cubes.
  • Fork (for blending butter – or just use your fingers!)
  • Baking sheet – To bake the quick biscuits on.
  • Cooling rack – Cooling biscuits after baking.

How to make easy quick drop biscuits:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil.

Cut butter into small chunks and add to a large mixing bowl. Add flour, salt, and baking powder.

Using a fork or your fingers, begin to mix butter into the flour until you have a crumbly mixture.

Stir milk and mayo into the flour mixture until just combined.

Drop round golf ball sized balls of dough onto your baking sheet.

Bake biscuits for 15 minutes until lightly golden. Transfer to a cooling rack to let cool or serve immediately!
