Baking Powder Biscuits

Course: Breads & Rolls
1st Gen Author: Janene Jensen

Ingredients

Combine the following ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tbsp salt

Cut in to make a crumbly dough:

  • 1/3 cup shortening crisco or margarine

Mix in:

  • 3/4 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees
  • Turn onto floured countertop (I use waxed paper as the clean up is easier). Roll flat to about 2” thick.
  • I use a jar ring, but you can also use the top of a glass to cut the biscuits.  Place on a non greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake @ 450 for 18 to 20 minutes.
