Easy Nutella Drop Biscuits

Who doesn’t love Nutella? Nutella has become a staple in our pantry. Here’s a simple enough recipe for a breakfast biscuit with Nutella. Part biscuit, part scone and just enough to nibble on all morning.

Nutella Drop Biscuits

Makes about 10-12 small biscuits

Ingredients:

2 1/2 tsp baking powder

2 tsp sugar

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

3/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

6 tbsp unsalted butter, cold

1 cup buttermilk

1/2-1 cup Nutella

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Combine all dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl.

3. Cut cold butter into small cubes. Add butter cubes to dry ingredients and with 2 forks, pastry blender (my favorite and easiest) or fingertips, mix well. Mixture will start to look like coarse cornmeal, keep working until all chunks of butter are mixed in.

4. Add buttermilk and stir enough just to blend.

5. Drop Nutella by the spoonful, stirring gently after every spoonful. Start with 1/2 and add to taste. I go with 1 cup.

6. Drop by spoonfuls onto baking sheet, 6 per sheet, leaving room to expand. Bake 12-15 minutes.
