Ingredients

- Drop teaspoonfuls of the batter onto a baking sheet.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding shredded cheese or herbs like chives or dill to the batter. If you don't have biscuit mix, you can make a homemade version with flour, baking powder, and salt. To enhance sweetness, try adding a tablespoon of honey or sugar. Adjust the amount of creamed corn based on your desired moisture level; less will create a firmer biscuit.
Serving Suggestions
These corny biscuits make a delightful side for soups or salads, such as a light Catalina Shell Salad. Serve them warm with butter or honey for added flavor. They also pair wonderfully with savory dishes like Chicken Wing Appetizers for a fun gathering or casual family meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover corny biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to restore their texture.
