Light And Tasty Biscuits

Description

I got this recipe from a neighbor-lady when I was a young farm wife on the plains of Kansas. It has never failed me, and is still one of my most requested recipes. I usually double it, and even triple it for big family breakfasts. I mix mine in a big wooden bowl.

Cooking Time

Preparation Time :15 Min

Cook Time : 15 Min

Total Time : 30 Min

Ingredients

Serves : 4-6
  • 2 flour
  • 2 1⁄2 baking powder
  • 1⁄2 salt
  • 1⁄3 shortening
  • 3⁄4 milk

Directions

  • Heat oven to 475 degrees.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, and the salt.
  • Cut in the shortening until coarse.
  • Add milk. Blend lightly until moistened and it pulls away from the bowl.
  • Knead for a minute or so until the dough is soft and looks a little like bread dough. Let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Roll out on a floured surface to about 3/4 inch thick (or thicker if you like).
  • Place on baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes.
