Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix the self-rising flour and mayonnaise until the mixture becomes coarse.
- Gradually add milk, stirring until the dough is soft enough to roll.
- You may not need all the milk or may need to add more to achieve the right consistency.
- Roll out the dough and cut into biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on a lightly greased baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through.
Tips & Substitutions
For lighter biscuits, be sure not to overmix the dough after adding the milk; just combine until moist. If self-rising flour isn't available, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour and add 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt. To add flavor, consider mixing in herbs or cheese, similar to Janice'S Cheese Ball for a savory twist.
Serving Suggestions
These biscuits are delightful on their own or served with butter and jam. They pair beautifully with Lime Bavarian Salad for a refreshing meal. Consider offering them alongside soups or stews, or use them to make breakfast sandwiches with eggs and cheese for a hearty start to your day.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through, ensuring they stay fluffy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular mayonnaise instead of flavored varieties?
Yes, regular mayonnaise works perfectly for this recipe. It provides the necessary moisture and fat without adding overpowering flavors. However, flavored mayonnaise can lend a unique taste, so feel free to experiment if you enjoy those flavors.
What can I do if my dough seems too dry?
If your dough feels dry, gradually add a little more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve a soft, workable consistency. It's important to avoid adding too much at once to prevent the biscuits from becoming too sticky.
Can I freeze the biscuits after baking?
Absolutely! Once cooled, wrap the biscuits tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and warm them in the oven before serving.
