White Lily Light Fluffy Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Whisk milk and egg together.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt together in a bowl. Add margarine and cut in with a pastry blender or 2 knives. Add milk-egg mixture and mix just enough to combine.
• Knead dough briefly, 5 to 7 times. Roll to a 1 1/2-inch thickness and cut out 14 biscuits.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 475 degrees F.
• Place flour in large bowl. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or 2 knives until crumbs are the size of peas. Add buttermilk, stirring with fork just until flour is moistened.
• Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead gently 5 to 6 times, just until a smooth dough is formed. Roll dough into a 7-inch circle that is 3/4- to 1-inch thick. Cut out 7 to 8 biscuits using a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place on baking sheet, about 1-inch apart. (For softer biscuits, arrange so that edges almost touch.) Shape dough scraps into a ball. Pat out until 3/4-inch thick. Cut out additional biscuits.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven. Brush with butter, if desired.
