Ingredients For Classic Drop Biscuits

Once the biscuits have baked and cooled you’ll then brush on salted melted butter! Carbs covered in melted butter, do I have your attention yet?

These biscuits are packed with delicious buttery goodness! But if you’re looking to add a little something to them, add in some garlic powder to the melted butter before brushing it on the cooled biscuits!

How To Make Drop Biscuits

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
3. Cut the cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture until butter is worked into pea-sized pieces. Being careful not to overmix.
4. Add the milk into the batter until just combined. The dough should look thick and sticky.
5. Drop biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake.
6. Cool before brushing on the melted salted butter.
