The best biscuits, I think, are made with buttermilk, but when you don’t have any on hand, plain yogurt will work just as well. It has the tang you want from the buttermilk and a thicker consistency than skim or lowfat milk.
Make a special breakfast this weekend. Your friends and family will thank you.
1. Preheat oven to 425ºF.
2. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.
3. Cut shortening into flour mixture with hands, forks, or a pastry cutter until mixture resembles cornmeal.
4. Stir in yogurt just until a shaggy dough forms.
5. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead 4-5 times until it holds together.
6. Pat or roll out until 1/2” thick (about the thickness of your biscuit cutter).
7. Push the cutter straight down and bring it straight back up (don’t twist it!), and lay biscuits on a baking sheet or stone.
8. Bake 11-12 minutes or until golden on top.

Great idea, I always have yogurt in my fridge.
