Description
Soft, savory, and naturally dairy- and egg-free, these 5-ingredient corn biscuits come together quickly with pantry staples. Perfect as a side or snack, they’re full of corn flavor and easy to customize.
Ingredients
- 1 can (1 1/4 cups) creamed corn
- 1/4 cup light olive oil
- 8 to 10 fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- Optional: 1/2 cup dairy-free cheddar-style shreds
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil it.
- In a mixing bowl, combine creamed corn, olive oil, chopped chives, salt, and optional dairy-free cheese. Mix until blended.
- Add self-rising flour and cornmeal. Gently fold together with a spatula until a thick, sticky batter forms. Do not overmix.
- Lightly oil your hands, scoop and drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 6 rough biscuits with space between them.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the tops are set and golden.
- Cool on a rack for 10–20 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Do not overmix the dough; it should remain sticky for soft biscuits.
- Substitute chives with other herbs like parsley or dill for variation.
- Add jalapeños or chili flakes for a spicy twist.
- Nutritional yeast can boost savory flavor without adding cheese.
- Replace some oil with plant-based yogurt for a softer interior.
