Ok this was my first time to make biscuits. I will make them bigger next time! They turned out a tad small, but they were tasty I must say. I thought this recipe was very easy and didn't take long at all to make. We had them for dinner tonight, and Ashley even liked them! She is my food critic!
Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup milk
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425
In large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
Cut in the shortening
Stir in milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead 15-20 times. Pat or roll dough out to 1 inch thick. Cut biscuits with a large cutter or juice glass dipped in flour. Brush off excess flour, and place onto an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 13- 15 minutes or until edges begin to brown.
We had these with Hot Spaghetti (Made with HOT pork sausage) instead of hamburger meat, and fresh steamed squash. It was a YUMMY dinner.
By the way- Ashley was my supper helper tonight and she did a GREAT job measuring out the ingredients. Thank You Ashley for all your help!
