One Big Family EP is a four-track extended play (EP) by English band Embrace from their debut album, The Good Will Out (1998). Released on 7 July 1997, and with the song "One Big Family" as the lead track, the EP narrowly missed the top 20 in the United Kingdom, peaking at number 21. "One Big Family" is sung by guitarist Richard McNamara rather than Embrace's usual singer, his brother Danny. In 2011, English artist Templecloud released a cover of the song that reached number 24 on the UK Singles Chart.

The songs "Dry Kids" and "Butter Wouldn't Melt" are on the B-sides compilation, Dry Kids: B-Sides 1997-2005. The B-side "Dry Kids" gave the name to the collection.
