3-Ingredient Drop Biscuits
Drop biscuits are really something special because they have the same delicious texture as regular biscuits but are so much easier! And these 3-Ingredient Drop Biscuits in particular are incredibly moist, flaky, and buttery, made with just butter, self-rising flour, and buttermilk.

Servings: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- ½ cup salted butter (1 stick), can use unsalted butter if you prefer
- 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450℉ and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the self-rising flour. Then add the cubed butter and work it into the flour with your hands (or a pastry cutter) until it's evenly distributed and in coarse round pieces. You can also grate the butter in, but freeze it for 30 minutes first.
- To the flour and butter mixture, create a small well and pour in the buttermilk. Mix with a spoon until just combined.
- Use either 2 spoons or a large cookie scoop and drop ¼ cup mounds onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Continue to drop biscuits at least 1" apart (it's ok if they touch when they bake) until there's no dough remaining.
- Bake for about 15-18 minutes until nicely golden brown.
