Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Mix self-rising flour, milk, and mayonnaise well; the batter will be lumpy, about 25 strokes.
- Spoon the batter into muffin tins, filling each half full.
- Bake at 425°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
To achieve the best texture, avoid over-mixing the batter; it should remain lumpy after about 25 strokes. If you're out of self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt. For a twist, try adding shredded cheese or herbs for added flavor. These muffins are a quick and easy option for breakfast or brunch, especially alongside a dish like Congealed Strawberry Sour Cream Salad.
Serving Suggestions
These Quick 'Biscuit' Muffins are perfect for breakfast or as a snack. Serve them warm with butter, jam, or honey. They pair well with savory dishes like Broccoli Two Cheese Casserole(A Country Thanksgiving At The Lamars) or can be enjoyed alongside a hearty soup. For a sweet touch, consider serving them with a side of Homemade Bailey'S for a delightful brunch treat.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, place them in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply microwave for 10-15 seconds or warm them in a toaster oven until heated through to maintain their fluffy texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?
Yes, you can use regular all-purpose flour. Just add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt for every cup of flour to mimic the properties of self-rising flour.
What can I add to the muffins for extra flavor?
You can incorporate various ingredients such as shredded cheese, diced jalapeños, or herbs like rosemary or chives. These additions will enhance the flavor profile and give your muffins a unique twist.
How can I tell when the muffins are done baking?
Muffins are done when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes of baking to prevent overcooking.
