They bake up so tender, light and fluffy. I brush the tops with butter before AND after baking. My favorite way to eat them is to split them open, spread with butter and drizzle with honey. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 egg |
2/3 cup buttermilk |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt and sugar.
2. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Beat egg and milk; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
4. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll to 1/2-in. thickness.
5. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. floured biscuit cutter. Place 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
6. Bake at 450 for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Serve warm.
8. Yield: 10 biscuits.
