I love to bake, says Doris Heath from Franklin, North Carolina. The recipe for these layered homemade biscuits came from a lady in Florida years ago. They're so easy when you need a breakfast treat for company. Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3 tablespoons sugar |
4 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar |
1/2 cup shortening |
2/3 cup milk |
filling: |
3 tablespoons butter, softened |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cream of tartar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until moistened. 2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Roll or pat into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Spread with butter. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over butter. 3. Cut into five 2-in. strips; stack strips on top of each other. Cut into six 2-in. pieces; place cut side down in six greased muffin cups. Bake at 425° for 11-14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to wire racks. Serve warm. Yield: 6 biscuits, 6 servings, 1 per serving. |
