Citric Acid Free Easy Drop Biscuits

Warm, golden, and impossibly fluffy, these drop biscuits come together with just a handful of wholesome pantry staples and zero fuss. For anyone navigating citric acid sensitivities, baked goods can be a minefield — many store-bought biscuits and mixes sneak in preservatives or additives that make them off-limits. This recipe keeps things beautifully clean: flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, butter, and whole milk — nothing hidden, nothing unnecessary. The cold butter worked into the flour is the secret to those irresistible flaky layers, and dropping the dough straight onto the pan means no rolling, no cutting, and no extra cleanup. A quick brush of melted butter straight out of the oven gives them a rich, glossy finish that makes them nearly impossible to resist. Serve them alongside soup, eggs, or honestly just on their own — they disappear fast either way.
