PARMESAN & BLACK PEPPER DROP BISCUITS

PARMESAN & BLACK PEPPER DROP BISCUITS – Flaky, tender drop biscuits infused with Parmesan cheese and specks of black pepper. They come together quickly in one bowl and can be on your table in your hands in about twenty minutes.

They have crusty outsides and soft, fluffy interiors. Not only is there black pepper on the inside but on the outside too because fresh from the oven and piping-hot they’re brushed with a mix of melted butter and pepper. It sinks down into them to drive that pepper flavor home and makes them extra special.

There’s nothing better than warm biscuits at this time of the year! Especially alongside soup or stew.

With their sharp, peppery bite and touch of saltiness from the Parmesan they have the ability to liven up any meal. I think I love them most of all with a creamy soup like the Andean Potato soup I made the other night.

You know what else I love? Leftovers! They will rock your breakfast! So delicious split, toasted and stuffed with eggs and bacon.

Definite repeats.They’ll see me through the winter.
