Citrus Free Easy Drop Biscuits

Warm, golden, and impossibly fluffy, these drop biscuits are the kind of thing that disappears from the table before it even has a chance to cool. The dough comes together with just six pantry staples — flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, butter, and whole milk — so there's nothing hiding in the ingredient list that could cause a problem for anyone avoiding citrus. Cold butter worked into the flour is the real secret here, creating those irresistible flaky layers without any fuss or rolling pin required. You simply drop the dough onto a baking sheet and let the oven do the work, which makes this one of the most approachable biscuit recipes out there. A brush of melted butter straight out of the oven gives each biscuit a rich, glossy finish that tastes every bit as good as it looks. Serve them alongside soup, eggs, or honestly just on their own — they need absolutely nothing else to shine.
