Great little biscuit that’s easy to throw together when you need something in a pinch! I’ve made them with milk and with low-fat buttermilk and the result is a light and fluffy biscuit. Don’t be afaid of the mayo, you can’t taste it! Ya gotta love when a few ingredients you have in the pantry come together to make something so good. And, they take virtually no time at all. I can’t wait to experiment with them by adding some herbs and cheddar or parmesan cheese!

Little crumbly, but I think that may be a result of overcooking. Everybody’s oven temp is a little different and mine runs a little hot, so next time, I will start checking the biscuits for doneness at about 20 minutes. I had some buttermilk in the fridge, so I used that, and we had sausage biscuits for breakfast today. Don’t be concerned about a mayonnaise flavor…there is NONE. This is so easy to make and yields a pretty tender biscuit. I will make this one again.

I have cooked these for years! I cook them at 400 for exactly 10 minutes and they come out perfectly every single time. Can’t imagine cooking them half an hour! For a delicious savory biscuit, add garlic powder and some grated parmesan cheese as well as a dash or two of onion powder – just delicious!

Easy Mayonnaise Biscuit Haiku: “Thought this was a joke, but nope, this recipe ruled! Way too easy, good!” Needed a last minute “starch” to dip into a thick soup and this recipe fit the bill w/ having the few ingredients on hand. I just didn’t think it was for real – I mean, 3 ingredients becoming biscuits?? But yep, even though mine didn’t take nearly the full 30 min., when they popped out of the muffin tin looking all lumpy, crusty, brown and delicious, we were so happy at how good they tasted dragged thru soup. Now if I were to eat them solo, I think they’d need some of the suggested-from-another-review garlic powder, parmesan, or another seasoning of sorts. But YUM and a cinch!

I sort of found this recipe by accident but am so glad I did. These were delicious biscuits to eat with our vegetable soup today. I did make my own self-rising flour. I baked these at 400 degrees for 15 minutes on parchment paper. I will definitely make these again. You are right, kitchen_angel, this recipe is amazing. Thank you.

Absolutely delicious!!! I tried making them on a cookie sheet but they were too thin for that. They tasted great though. So the next time I used a muffin pan….wow, I was amazed! So easy and tasty. I wonder if you can put cheese in the center of the dough and make cheese biscuits?? Thanks for a great recipe!

Absolutely no changes to ingredients. First time using a muffin tin for biscuits (great idea!) I made a crumble with the mayo and flour first, then added the milk. It came out a bit soupy for me, but utilizing the miffin tin, that was ideal as it poured in like cake batter!
Preheated my oven to 375?F, and greased my muffin tin, but only kept them in for 10 minutes. They fell right out of the tin with a soft, creamy-gold glow on the bottoms and a mashed potato look to the white tops. Sliced open well, and we enjoyed them with honey butter.
Thumbs up! Will make again.

I made these to go with gravy for a biscuits and gravy breakfast and they are delicious and moist, however the tops of them looked odd. Dry and bulbous. I made them in a small muffin tin at 350 for 15 min, doubled the recipe and used all purpose flour, some salt and baking soda (using the appropriate amount to substitute for baking powder) instead of baking powder because I had none. I was only able to make nine of these biscuits in the small muffin pan. They were fluffy and wonderful. I will make these again.

This is a very easy recipe and I will be using it again for a repeat performance. The only tweak I did was to add1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to it. The next time I make these, I am not going to use the muffin tin. I will be rolling out the dough and using my biscuit cutter.

Super easy recipe, I had never thought about using mayo as the shortening in biscuits. I don’t keep self rising flour, so I used all purpose, with the addition of 1/2 tsp salt and 1.5 tsp baking powder. I made them in the muffin pan as directed, but next time I would like to try just making them as drop biscuits. I don’t like cleaning muffin pans lol

Quick, easy, and delicious biscuit – nice crunch on the outside, and soft as a cloud in the middle. Only thing I’d adjust is the baking time – 30 mins seems excessive. I took them out after 25 and they were done all the way through and quite brown around the bottom and sides.

made just like the recipe, and they weren’t all that. Def no mayo taste, but not much flavor either. Needs butter, or like someone else said, garlic and cheese. They do taste very similar to Red Lobsters cheddar bay with no cheddar. Just sort of bland. And in the muffin cups, def cook the 30 minutes, even with that, mine were kind of gummy in the middle.

This was incredibly easy to whip together. I have to be dairy-free everything, so I replaced the milk with cashew milk unflavored and unsweetened. They came out really well, with the characteristic crunch of a drop biscuit and the soft center that buttermilk has. I used 400 F at about 13-15 minutes, which seemed to be perfect. Will try to mix jam into the biscuits or maybe vegan cheese to add some more flavor, but they were decent by themselves.

I made these for a quick breakfast today and they were delicious. I personally would half the salt as I prefer my food undersalted and would add a tiny bit (maybe 1/4 tsp of sugar). Overall I was surprised at how beautifully fluffy they were and tasted delicious. Would make these again

Ok..First of all they tasted very good. 2nd, I’m not sure why I needed the large muffin pan. In order to obtain 6 large biscuits I would have needed to double the recipe. I made exactly as the recipe stated. I used the self rising flour too. I divided the batter up for 6 large biscuit, but they did not raise at all. The taste is very good though. I will be making them again.

These biscuits are EXACTLY what I was looking for! A simple recipe that would deliver HUGE taste without a lot of ingredients/preparation/work. And the taste and texture are spot on! My new go-to biscuit recipe! And they look great too! I’ll try dropping them on a sheet for my next batch!

My Mom called these “Depression Biscuits” and were made for breakfasts and dinner if she couldn’t go to the store. These were popular during her childhood growing up in the Depression era because butter was prized. We never had self-rising flour, so in a 1 cup measure she added 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder and 1/4 tsp of salt and added flour on top. These came in handy during Covid times when I wanted a bread or biscuit with dinner but could not, or did not want to go out. They remind me of my Mom. ?? I love them buttered with jam for breakfast.

I made this recipe with mayo, WIO flour, buttermilk, and baking powder. Baked it at 350? for 10 minutes. As you see from my picture, the biscuits browned on the bottom, but not on the top. They didn’t have a lot of flavor, but I covered them with maple sausage gravy anyway. . . Simple recipe – I will try it again. . . I was able to bake them on my toaster oven pan.

Lightest biscuits ever. Recipe in dire need of updating tho…do not bake 30 minutes unless you need rocks to decorate your garden. Recipe is quite old and before air fryers were even thought of but using the air fryer not only keeps your kitchen cool it is efficient and quick. Preheat air fryer and set temp at 375 and bake for approx 7 minutes. I put the biscuit dough into silicone muffin cups…no greasing required and six fit perfectly into my Ninja air fryer. Done and golden and so light in just a few minutes. I’ll never make biscuits any other way. Happy to have this recipe.

I followed it, as written, except for substituting 1/4 c. of Oatmeal flour for white. They also baked in 25 minutes, rather than 30. Next time I will add 1-2 T. more flour, and 1 T. more milk;
or, just add 1 T. less mayonaise. (Oatmeal flour has the added benefit on cutting down on the amount of fat called for.)
I ate them in the usual manner; with butter and honey or jam. I left one plain, and actually preferred them without the extra butter!
Altogether, a very satisfying and quick alternative to my usual recipe! -

Quick & easy, especially when you gotta have biscuits! I used Best Foods Mayo. I didn’t have whole milk so I used heavy cream thinned with water. Didn’t have self rising flour so I used the cheat-sheet mixture. They were pretty darm good anyway. When I think about how much I enjoyed them, and how few “real deal” ingredients I used, it’s practically a Biscuit Miracle. Will definately add them to my biscuit rotation.

I was very excited to try these and I was disappointed. They are very tiny bite sized, not what i expected when one thinks of homemade biscuits. The biggest problem for me was the mayo taste that people said you would not taste, was all I tasted. But I also used miracle whip so that might be the issue. They were a great texture and moist inside which is what this whole recipe was about so in that it would be a 5. I will try again with the Hellman and see what I think.

This recipe was so easy and turned out wonderfully. It was only a four star recipe as written but with the tweaks I made, they were five stars! I added a 1/4 tsp of salt to the batter, used a small cookie scoop to scoop them in to the muffin tin, baked for 15 minutes and then brushed the tops with melted butter! They were so good I immediately made a triple batch so we could have sausage gravy and biscuits.

I made this recipe as is and only had to make my own self- raising flour. I do however disagree with the reviews that say it does not really taste like mayo. I did smell it and somewhat tasted it. I had to bake mine for the full 30 minutes. They came out soft and fluffy and a bit gummy. Still, for an item in a pinch it works. Like someone else mentioned, it is good to try with other herbs and condiments. This recipe has that good part in versatility. I used cupcake sized liners and got exactly 5. Maybe next time I will make them as drop biscuits and brush them with butter to brown and crisp them more. Might make them again not sure yet.

These are so easy and good if you tweak them just slightly. I doubled the recipe and added an extra dash of salt and 1/4 cup of sugar. The slight sweetness brought out a wonderful flavor! When they’re still really hot, you can slightly taste/smell the mayo, but I think that could be fixed by using homemade mayo made with a neutral oil. Once they were lightly browned, I rubbed the tops with soft butter. So delish!
