Ingredients:

  • 4 cups strawberries
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Wash, trim, and slice strawberries. (I use an entire carton) Place in a medium size bowl. Add a 1/4 cup of sugar and mix gently, and place in the refrigerator.
  3. In a mixing bowl; measure flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shorting until mixture looks like cornmeal. Stir in almost all of the milk. If dough is not pliable add enough milk to make soft and puffy. round up dough and place on a lightly floured board, kneed lightly for 20 -25 seconds.
  4. I use a cookie scoop to measure out biscuits instead of rolling them out.
  5. Place an ungreased baking sheet.
  6. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Server warm or cold. Top with milk or ice cream and whip cream.
