The other year I had an identity crisis with a recipe I made. It wasn’t a scone. It wasn’t a muffin. It just WAS. What it WAS was scrumptious and has been a favorite in our house ever since. We have two variations of this recipe – muffins and now that I have broken through that crisis, what I have officially dubbed Apple Oat Drop Biscuits.
They pair well with eggs and maple flavored breakfast sausage. They pair well with NOTHING. You know, as in, eat every single one on your own and be stuffed but don’t dare tell a soul you made them because they will be angry you didn’t leave them any. No, I didn’t do this, but I could have. Oh yes, I could have. Even my apple hating daughter loves my Apple Oat Drop Biscuits. So will you. If you don’t, well your loss and I’m just glad I don’t have to share with you.

Made these this morning – so tasty! They are like muffin tops! 🙂 yum yum!
Thank you! I think I need to whip up a batch. We love them too.
The recipe sounded wonderful and looked delicious when baked, but the taste was very bland. Maybe a little more sugar might help. I would suggest tasting the batter before baking. We had to throw out the batch. Will try again adjusting the sugar – brown sugar.
Thank you for your feedback. Just let me point out that it is a biscuit which traditionally would not have a lot of sugar.
These look delicious. I can’t wait to make this recipe for my girls.
