EASY DROP OR ROLLED BISCUITS 
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/3 c. oil
2/3 c. milk

Mix flour and baking powder. Combine oil and milk; pour all at once into dry ingredients. Stir until mixture forms a ball. Knead 18-20 times. Roll to 1/2-inch thick. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet in a preheated 450°F oven. For drop biscuits, add 2 tablespoons more milk. Drop onto ungreased baking sheet.

Variations: For herb seasoned biscuits add 1 teaspoon garlic or 1 teaspoon onion powder, 2 teaspoons parsley flakes, 2 teaspoons dill weed or 1/2 teaspoon sage. I use sage with chicken, garlic with pasta, dill weed with beef.

I doubled the recipe and added 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons dried parsley to the dry ingredients, baking for 15 minutes. Nice light crunch outside and moist inside. Tasty.

It might be helpful for some if you were to note how long the biscuits should bake. It is a very good and simple recipe.

@Freezy, Patricia said she baked for 15 minutes. Basically when you put them in the oven, don't walk away and forget! Take them out when they look golden brown! That's really the best advice.

If you add one egg they expand more and are fluffy. Great taste!

 DoughBoy (Idaho) says:
Bakes in about 8-10 minutes. I added 1 tsp. garlic, 2 tbsp. parsley flakes and a couple dashes of salt and pepper. These went over well at dinner although everyone had one way before as they smelled awesome baking.
