Drop Biscuits

Drop Biscuits

Ingredients:
2 cups of white (or  wheat flour)
3 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) soft but still cold butter
2 tablespoons honey (can use regular but pure raw honey is best)
1 cup of milk

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
In a medium or large bowl mix all of the dry ingredients together. Cut butter into dry ingredients. Add honey and milk. Mix all together with a spoon or spatula until soft but sticky dough forms. Remember we are making drop biscuits, so the batter is not meant to be kneaded or rolled.
Use a tablespoon and butter knife to gather some of the dough, and drop it onto an ungreased cookie/baking sheet. This should give you 12-16 biscuits. I cooked mine in two batches using a regular size baking sheet or use two of them to cook all at once :-)

Bake for 8 minutes at 425-450 degrees. Depending on your oven I suggest cooking them at 425 your first time doing this to keep them from burning too quickly. Serve with softened butter and jelly if you desire.

Note: I like that this recipe is so versatile. You can add 2 tsp. ground cinnamon to make Cinnamon Drop Biscuits like in my pic or add other spices to make sweet or savory flavors to your liking.
