Ingredients

BUTTER Be sure your butter is cold. Cold butter creates little pockets in the biscuits for better texture. Work the butter in using either a pastry blender (or 2 forks) until the mixture resembles peas.

FLOUR All-purpose flour is something we always have on hand, you can substitute 1/2 cup with wheat flour if desired.

FLAVORS Garlic & onion plus chive and Parmesan cheese add extra flavor to these drop biscuits! Feel free to add in some shredded or cheddar or a few dried chili flakes. Even jalapenos can be added in for some spice!

How to Make Drop Biscuits

Drop biscuits are super simple to make since there’s no need to roll them out.

  1. Mix dry ingredients together.
  2. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender or fork (dough should become crumbly, like small peas). Mix in chives & cheese.
  3. Add milk, combine until just barely mixed. Then just drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheeet & pop in the oven!

Tips for the Best Biscuits

  • The colder the butter, the better the biscuit. Try cutting the butter into cubes and refrigerating it until icy cold.
  • Once the milk is added, a quick mix of the dough is all that really needed. Don’t overdo it, or the biscuits can lose their fluffy & tender texture.
  • These biscuits can be dropped on top of chicken stew for chicken and dumplings. About 15-20 minutes before stew is ready to serve, drop biscuit dough on top, then cover with a tight-fitting lid. Don’t lift the lid before time is up!

How to Store

  • Drop biscuits with cheese keep fresh in the fridge for 3-4 days. Just store them in a zippered bag or an airtight container.
  • Baked drop biscuits can also be frozen, and will keep their quality for up to four months.
  • Warm them up in the microwave or toaster oven or serve biscuits and gravy for breakfast!
