DROP BISCUITS

Drop biscuits are heavenly, and considering how little work they are to put together, they're also a real kitchen miracle. A few pantry staples and a hot oven are all you need for crunchy golden biscuits with soft interiors. They are excellent on their own, but a bit of butter and jam doesn't hurt either. Once you've nailed the basic version, try stirring in some cracked black pepper and Parmigiano-Reggiano, finely chopped tender herbs or chocolate chips.

Steps:

Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is the texture of coarse meal with some pea-size pieces.
Using a fork, stir in the milk until just evenly moistened, adding up to 2 more tablespoons, if necessary, but stopping before the dough gets too wet. Scoop the dough into 8 rough mounds (about 1/3-cup each) and place them on the prepared sheets. Bake the biscuits until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

DROP BISCUITS

These drop biscuits have a higher ratio of butter and milk to flour than other cut out biscuits, which yield a sticky dough. Once the wet ingredients are pulsed into the dry, we simply scoop drops of dough onto a baking sheet and bake. The result is a coarsely textured, golden biscuit with a tender, buttery crumb.

Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Pulse in the butter just a few times, until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the milk and pulse just until the dough comes together.
Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of dough with a cup measure or ice cream scoop onto the baking sheet (about 10 scoops). Brush the tops lightly with milk. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
Mash butter with dill, capers, lemon zest and juice.
Puree butter with mango chutney and curry powder.
Puree butter with maple syrup and adobo sauce.
