Homemade Biscuits?
I only have milk, eggs, and flour. Can I make Homemade biscuits from just that? What are the ingredients? I only have these items, pls lemme know if it’s possible to make them w/ just that?
Thanks because, I do have oil and butter and salt, I thought it WAS possible w/out the other stuff. And my flour is the self-rising kind, so thankyou!

Homemade Biscuits(w/self rising flour)
1 cup of self rising flour
1/2 cup of milk
Mix flour & milk and stir until well mixed.(Your mix should not be too thick or biscuits will not rise, nor should they be too thin or they will not cook!)
Pour small amount of flour on clean countertop and pour biscuit dough onto it. Cover completely with dry flour until there are no wet spots remaining. Flatten biscuit dough until no thicker than one inch. Cut out biscuits with biscuit cutter. (I use the edge of a glass! It works just the same!) Place biscuits on ungreased cooking sheet. Place a small drop of butter on top of each biscuit. (You may use cooking oil, but butter tastes better.)
Cook at 350 degrees for twenty minutes or until golden
brown.

We’re having biscuits and gravy for dinner tonight, but we’re out of Pillsbury biscuits so I need to make some by hand.
