Rumford's Baking Powder Biscuits image

An oldie but a goodie! Printed on the back of a can of Rumford Aluminum-Free Baking Powder. I am quite surprised that this recipe hadn't been added to the site database until now. Egg-free. Mmmm, so good with a spread of butter and slather of creamed honey (and a wee bit of real maple syrup stirred into the butter, too)!

Categories     Breads

Time 22m

Yield 8-10 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups sifted unbleached white flour
3 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons shortening (lard or refined coconut oil can be substituted)
2/3 cup milk (I tried buttermilk and used closer to 3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Note: I used a KitchenAid stand up mixer to prep the dough.
  • PREHEAT oven to 450 degrees.
  • Sift flour, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Cut in shortening until mixture resemble coarse meal.
  • Add milk to make a soft dough.
  • Turn dough out on a floured surface and knead *gently* for 30 seconds.
  • Roll out to 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch thickness.
  • Use a cookie cutter to cut out into rounds. I used a 3-inch diameter Fiestaware tumbler cup, top floured.
  • Place on greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake approximately 12-15 minutes or until light golden.

I would not recommend this recipe. The biscuits were bland and tasteless.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biscuits turned out really flat.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my biscuits didn't turn out as good as I hoped. They were a little dense.

These biscuits were a little dry for my taste, but they were still good.

These biscuits were a hit with my family! They were so light and fluffy, and the flavor was perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.
