Original Recipe Yield 18 biscuits
 

Ingredients

  • 4 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar and baking powder; stir well. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add 2 cups buttermilk and mix just to moisten.
  3. Roll out dough to 1 inch thick and cut into biscuits. Place biscuits on prepared baking sheets; brush tops with remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until golden.
