Description
These biscuits are perfect moist and peel-apart flaky. They are great served fresh from the oven, topped with butter or honey or your favorite jam. I’d love to do a sausage gravy and biscuits breakfast with these sometime as well! Yum!
Ingredients
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- ½ cups Shortening
- ¾ cups Milk
Preparation
Preheat oven to 450ºF.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender (or by pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in milk until dough leaves the side of bowl (dough will be soft and sticky).
Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a floured 2 to 2-1/4 inch round cutter. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart for crusty sides or touching for soft sides.
Bake 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
