Ingredients :
- 3 cups White Lily self-rising Flour
- 1/2 cup Crisco shortening
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 stick butter (melted)
Method :
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees
- In large mixing bowl sift flour with baking soda. Cut in the shortening and work in with hands until you have beads of flour mixture.
- Add buttermilk into flour mixture. Stir with wooden spoon until all flour is wet. Again work with hands to until dough is ready to pour out and cut.
- Place dough on floured surface and either press out or roll with rolling pin to about 3/4 inch tall. Cut with biscuit cutter and place on greased cookie sheet. Place biscuits next to each other for maximum rise.
- I allow biscuits to rest for 5-10 minutes prior to popping in oven. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown.
- When you first pull out of oven brush with melted butter. Enjoy.
- I know some will ask why use self-rising flour and then add baking powder. I have found through testing that this recipe gives maximum rise and tenderness to the biscuits. You may find through your own trial and error that you prefer less rise and/or a more firm biscuit.
