Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Butter (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to combine evenly.

Step 3

Add the mayonnaise and milk to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each biscuit.

Step 5

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.

Step 6

Optional: While the biscuits are still warm, brush the tops with melted butter for added flavor and shine.

Step 7

Serve the mayonnaise biscuits warm, either plain or with your favorite toppings such as honey, butter, or jam.
