Carrageenan Free Easy Drop Biscuits

Warm, golden, and impossibly fluffy, these drop biscuits come together with just a handful of pantry staples and no rolling pin required. Carrageenan — a common additive found in many commercial dairy products and packaged baked goods — can be surprisingly tricky to avoid when you're reaching for store-bought options. Here, the ingredient list is refreshingly short: flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, whole milk, and butter, so you stay in full control of what goes into every bite. The technique is beautifully forgiving — cold butter gets worked into the flour until crumbly, milk brings it together into a rough, shaggy dough, and then you simply drop and bake. That rustic, uneven surface is exactly what creates all those craggy, buttery edges that crisp up so perfectly at 450°F. A brush of melted butter straight out of the oven takes them from great to genuinely irresistible. Serve them warm alongside soup, eggs, or honestly just on their own — they disappear fast.
