No need to knead

There’s no need to roll, cut or knead the dough. With these drop biscuits, simply combine self-rising flour with milk and Blue Plate® Mayonnaise, mix well, and drop 2 tablespoons of dough at a time onto a baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 15-20 minutes.

Blue Plate Mayo = Great texture & flavor

The biscuits offer a deliciously moist and fluffy texture, thanks to Blue Plate Mayonnaise. Yup, that’s the good stuff! They should come out of the oven golden on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfect for spreading with butter and jam.

Add a seasoning, herb or cheese

For extra flavor, add minced chives, basil, or garlic powder and Parmesan cheese to the mix. Our recipe is so easy to personalize, you and your family can enjoy homemade biscuits just the way you like them.

RECIPE: SOUTHERN DROP BISCUITS

Ingredients

1 cup milk

1/3 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise

2 cups self-rising* flour

Preparation

Preaheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a large cookie sheet with nonstick spray, or cover with parchment or a silicone mat.

Mix the milk and mayonnaise with a whisk in a large bowl. Whisk in flour slowly, whisking just enough to combine. Scrape down sides. If mixture is too thin, add additional flour in ¼ cup increments until dough can be scooped.

Drop about 2 tablespoons dough at a time onto the prepared cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm. Wrap leftovers and store at room temperature for up to 2 days.

*If you don’t have 2 cups self-rising flour, substitute 2 cups all-purpose flour plus 3 teaspoons baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
