Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups self-rising flour
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 420°F (215°C).
  2. Mix together the self-rising flour and mayonnaise in a bowl until well combined.
  3. Gradually stir in the milk to form a soft batter.
  4. Grease muffin tins and pour the batter into each cup.
  5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Tips & Substitutions

For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of garlic powder or herbs like rosemary or thyme to the batter. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt. Ensure the mayonnaise is at room temperature for easier mixing.

Serving Suggestions

These Mayonnaise Muffin Biscuits make a delightful breakfast treat or a tasty snack. Serve them warm with butter or jam, or alongside a fresh salad for lunch. They pair beautifully with the Detailed Pumpkin Cheese Roll for a hearty meal. For an extra touch, a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top before serving adds a nice finishing touch.

Storage & Reheating

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?

Yes, you can substitute regular all-purpose flour. Just remember to add 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt for every cup of flour used to mimic the self-rising flour effect.

What can I substitute for mayonnaise?

If you're looking for a substitute for mayonnaise, plain Greek yogurt or sour cream works well. They provide a similar moisture and texture, although the flavor may be slightly different.

Can I add mix-ins to the batter?

Absolutely! Feel free to fold in ingredients like shredded cheese, cooked bacon, or chopped herbs to customize your muffins. This can add flavor and texture, making them even more delicious.
