what you need
- 1/8 cup hot tap water
- 1 rounded tsp. yeast
- 1 cup flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 cup Crisco
- 1/2 Tbs. sugar
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
make it
To water add yeast and set aside. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Add Crisco to flour and mix until well blended. Add sugar to buttermilk and mix thoroughly. Add milk mixture to flour mixture and mix well.
Spoon onto floured paper towels (or your choice) and sprinkle well with flour. Knead into a well rounded ball and pat out to about a saucer sized dough. Cut this into 5 biscuits and place in small enough heavy pan (I prefer pampered chef pans) to where sides of biscuits touch each other. Spread tops of biscuits with buttermilk.
Bake in 425 degrees F oven until nicely browned.
