Andreas Moms Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk; knead dough gently. Roll out to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Freeze option: Freeze cooled biscuits in a resealable freezer container. To use, heat in a preheated 350° oven 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease three 9-inch pie tins with 2 teaspoons lard.
• Put the biscuit mix in a bowl and make a well in the middle of the flour. Put the lard in the well and add the buttermilk. Gently mix the buttermilk and lard into the flour with your hands until a soft dough forms. If the dough is dry, add a little more buttermilk; if it's too wet, add a little more flour. Coat your hands well with flour and gently form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball. Place the dough balls in the pie tins, 7 per tin. Gently press each ball down to flatten.
• Bake until lightly browned on top and the biscuits release from the tins when you give them a shake, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and rub the tops of the biscuits with the butter or margarine. Serve hot!

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients.
• Cut in shortening.
• add just enough milk to make the mixture moist, you probably won't use the full 1/2 cup.

• Press dough flat to 1/2 inch. Cut into 2 inch circles.
• Place biscuits shoulder to shoulder on ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes.
