I normally don't use a recipe for my biscuits,but I've learned from experience that the recipe on the bag of flour does not make the best biscuits. Here is an approximate recipe.

Provided by Dale Goodman

Categories     Breads

Time 45m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 1/2 cups self rising flour
1/2-2/3 cup shortening
1 1/2-2 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • Mix flour and shortening in a mixing bowl.
  • Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add buttermilk and stir.
  • Start out with a little and add more as you need.
  • The dough should be wet and gummy.
  • THEN, sprinkle a little flour on top and work it in with your hands.
  • Then flip the dough and do the same on the other side. Continue to do this until the dough isn't sticky on the outside, it doesn't take much.
  • Then flour your hands and take a small amount of dough and roll it into a ball, then place on a greased cookie sheet or baking pan and flatten slightly into a biscuit shape. When you've finished with the dough, b ake the biscuits in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes, just until they start to brown, then take them out and preheat the broiler, and then stick the biscuits back in until they are brown.
  • You can brush them with melted butter if you like. This may take some practice, but after a few times you will know what the consistency of the dough should feel like. I hope this works for you.

These biscuits were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter next time.

I've tried this recipe a few times and I can never seem to get the biscuits to rise properly. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I like to add a little bit of grated cheese to my biscuits. It gives them a cheesy flavor that I love.

I've tried many biscuit recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The biscuits are always light and fluffy, and they have a perfect golden brown crust.

These biscuits were so easy to make and turned out perfectly! They were light, fluffy, and had a delicious buttery flavor. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
