Mayonnaise Biscuits Recipe

Self-rising flour: A pre-mixed blend of all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, essential for the biscuits to rise properly.

Milk: Adds moisture and helps bind the ingredients together, creating a tender texture.

Mayonnaise: Provides fat and flavor, making the biscuits rich and fluffy.

When mixing the batter, be careful not to overwork it. Overmixing can lead to tough biscuits. Stir just until the ingredients are combined to ensure a light and fluffy texture.

• self-rising flour - Substitute with all-purpose flour: Mix 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 3 teaspoons of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt to make your own self-rising flour.

• milk - Substitute with buttermilk: Buttermilk adds a slight tang and tenderness to the biscuits. Use the same amount as milk.

• mayonnaise - Substitute with Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt provides a similar creamy texture and tanginess, making it a healthier alternative to mayonnaise.

• mayonnaise - Substitute with sour cream: Sour cream can also mimic the creamy texture and slight tang of mayonnaise, suitable for baking.

• milk - Substitute with almond milk: For a dairy-free option, almond milk can be used in the same quantity as regular milk.

• Allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack. This prevents condensation from forming, which can make them soggy.

• For short-term storage, place the biscuits in an airtight container. They will stay fresh at room temperature for up to 2 days.

• If you want to keep them longer, wrap each biscuit individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This helps maintain their texture and flavor.

• Place the wrapped biscuits in a resealable plastic bag or an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.

• For freezing, arrange the cooled biscuits on a baking sheet in a single layer. Freeze them for about an hour or until they are solid. This prevents them from sticking together.

• Once frozen, transfer the biscuits to a resealable plastic freezer bag or an airtight container. Label with the date and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

• To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes or until warmed through. Alternatively, you can microwave them on a microwave-safe plate for about 20-30 seconds.

• Enjoy your mayonnaise biscuits with your favorite soups, stews, or as a delightful side to any meal.

• Oven Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Cover the biscuits with aluminum foil to prevent them from drying out.
  4. Heat for about 10-12 minutes or until they are warmed through.

• Microwave Method:

  1. Place the biscuits on a microwave-safe plate.
  2. Cover them with a damp paper towel to retain moisture.
  3. Microwave on medium power for 20-30 seconds. Check and repeat if necessary, but be careful not to overheat as they can become tough.

• Toaster Oven Method:

  1. Preheat your toaster oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the biscuits directly on the rack or a baking tray.
  3. Heat for about 8-10 minutes, checking halfway to ensure they don't over-brown.

• Skillet Method:

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. Place the biscuits in the skillet and cover with a lid.
  3. Heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until warmed through. This method can give the biscuits a slightly crispy exterior.

• Air Fryer Method:

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
  2. Place the biscuits in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  3. Heat for about 3-5 minutes, checking halfway to ensure they are warming evenly.

• Oven: Used to bake the biscuits at 375°F (190°C) until they are golden brown.

• Mixing bowl: Used to combine all the ingredients until just blended.

• Baking sheet: Used to place the spoonfuls of batter for baking.

• Spoon: Used to drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the baking sheet.

• Measuring cups: Used to measure the self-rising flour, milk, and mayonnaise accurately.

• Spatula: Useful for scraping down the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

Pre-measure ingredients: Measure out the self-rising flour, milk, and mayonnaise ahead of time to streamline the mixing process.

Use a cookie scoop: Utilize a cookie scoop to drop uniform spoonfuls of batter onto the baking sheet quickly and evenly.

Line the baking sheet: Line your baking sheet with parchment paper to reduce cleanup time.

Preheat the oven early: Start preheating your oven before you begin mixing the ingredients to ensure it's ready when you are.

Mix efficiently: Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to combine ingredients faster and more thoroughly.
