Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2/3 cup buttermilk or full fat milk
- 1/3 cup vegetable shortening
Instructions
- Add the dry ingredients to a sifter or mesh strainer. Sift them together over top of/into a large bowl.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients and add in wet ingredients. Use your hands to knead the dough, cutting them in as you go.
- If the dough isn't coming together just yet, add a bit more milk, just until the dough has come together and formed.
- Lightly flour a work surface and turn the formed dough out onto it. Knead the dough 6-8 good times.
- Roll the dough out until it's 1/2" thick all the way around.
- Use a glass or a biscuit cutter to cut 8 biscuits out of the dough. Form the remaining scraps into two biscuits. Transfer the biscuits to a baking sheet.
- Bake the biscuits at 425 degrees for 10-13 minutes.
- Serve warm with drizzle with honey or topped with a pat of butter.
