Crisco Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• In a bowl mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the shortening until the mixture has only pea sized lumps. Add milk and mix until dry mixture is absorbed. Drop dough by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown.

Steps:

• Mix baking powder, flour, and salt together.
• Cut crisco into dry mixure.
• Mix together until it is crumbly.
• stir in milk and knead lightly on floured board, about 6 times.
• Roll out and cut.
• Bake on ungreased cookie sheet in 405* for 10-12 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Get a baking stone or biscuit pan. This does not have to be greased.
• 2. Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Cut in crisco with a pastry cutter until well blended. Stir in buttermilk until it forms a soft ball of dough that pulls away from the sides of the mixing bowl.
• 3. Turn dough out on floured surface or into a bread bowl dusted with a little flour. Knead gently 5-6 strokes. Do not work in too much flour. Keep dough light. Do not overwork. Roll out to a minimum of 1/2" thick. Cut biscuits with sharp cutter.
• 4. Place biscuits on baking stone or in pan, with sides just barely touching. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until browned and risen up high. Remove from oven and IMMEDIATELY cover with a clean towel so biscuits steam themselves. This makes them softer. Serve with butter, jam, honey, or sorghum.
• 5. NOTE: I just read that if you want your biscuits to be more brown on the top, brush them with a little butter or cream before baking.
