About Drop biscuit
Drop biscuits are a quick and versatile bread originating from Southern American cuisine. Unlike rolled or cut biscuits, these are made by dropping dollops of dough directly onto a baking sheet, resulting in a rustic appearance. The dough typically consists of flour, butter, baking powder, milk, and salt, creating a tender and crumbly texture once baked. Drop biscuits can be enjoyed plain or enhanced with ingredients like cheese, herbs, or fruit. While their simple ingredients make them easy to prepare, they are often high in carbohydrates, saturated fats, and sometimes sodium, depending on the recipe. However, drop biscuits can be modified with whole-grain flour or alternative fats for a healthier twist. Traditionally served as a side or paired with hearty meals, they offer comfort and flavor but should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
