Ingredients
Instructions

Tips & Substitutions
For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding herbs or spices to the batter, such as garlic powder or dried chives. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt. These mayo biscuits can also be made with Greek yogurt as a healthier alternative to mayo or Miracle Whip.

They pair beautifully with hearty soups or stews, making them a perfect side to complement dishes like Mom'S Sweet Potato Casserole. You can also enjoy them as a breakfast item alongside eggs or sausage for a filling start to your day.
