Quick Easy Drop Biscuits Recipe

Heat the oven. Set your rack to the middle position and preheat to 450°F (230°C). Note: This high heat is vital for creating that initial steam driven rise.

In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, 0.5 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp sugar.

In a separate measuring jug, combine 1 cup cold buttermilk, 2 tbsp yogurt, and 0.25 cup melted (and cooled!) butter.

Pour the wet mix into the dry. Use a spatula to fold gently until just combined and no dry streaks remain. Note: Overmixing will lead to tough, bread like biscuits.

Drop 12 equal mounds of dough onto a parchment lined tray, leaving about 2 inches between each.

Slide into the oven and bake for 12 minutes until the tops are golden and the edges are firm.

Immediately brush the hot tops with 1 tbsp melted butter and sprinkle with a pinch of flaky salt.

Allow them to sit on the tray for 2 minutes to let the crumb set before eating.
