Sunday Morn Fluffy Biscuits

I bring been biscuit "challenged" for many years, thus when I'm inward a hurry, I usually resort to a subway scheme of commercial rolls in addition to campaign to jazz them up, exactly they are pretty un-mistakable (and getting expensive!!). 

The end few years, I've tried out a lot of biscuit recipes, inward hopes of finding the perfect one; 1 that is flavorful, light, fluffy in addition to EASY............here is my latest success...YUM!!!

Made alongside baking powder, baking soda, buttermilk AND yeast, these biscuits are calorie-free in addition to fluffy. Hot out of the oven alongside butter in addition to honey, they are a winner!!!

1 envelope of yeast (I utilization 1 tablespoon)
pinch of sugar
1/4 loving cup warm water
2 1/2 cups of all utilization flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon of white sugar
6 tablespoons Crisco flavored shortening
1 loving cup buttermilk slightly warmed (see note)

In a minor dish, mix the yeast, pinch of saccharide in addition to warm water, in addition to thus ready aside for nearly five minutes.

Stir the flour, baking soda, baking powder, common salt in addition to saccharide together and in addition to thus cutting inward the shortening until it is nearly the size of minor peas.  NOTE: Butter doesn't function inward this recipe

Stir inward the dissolved yeast in addition to warmed buttermilk. Mix well, exactly produce non over mix. Turn out onto floured board in addition to curlicue to 3/4” thick.

Cut alongside a 3” biscuit cutter (or floured glass). Place on parchment newspaper in addition to bake inward preheated 400° oven for 12-14 minutes or until nice and golden. Brush alongside melted butter when they come upward out of the oven; they brand fantastic breakfast sandwiches!!

NOTE: No kneading needed.

NOTE: This recipe does non function every bit good if you lot utilization butter instead of shortening. I utilization butter flavored Crisco inward all my recipes that telephone phone for shortening.

NOTE: Don't hold upward tempted to utilization your nutrient processor when cutting inward the shortening, it volition procedure the shortening to much, it is ameliorate to bring larger pieces of butter than super fine. I utilization my pastry cutter.

NOTE: Do NOT add together all of the buttermilk at once. Add nearly 2/3 of it in addition to run across if that is enough. Personally, I intend 1 loving cup of milk is likewise much, exactly everyone’s flour is different. Just flour your board plenty thus that the biscuits are non sticky.

NOTE: If you lot don’t bring parchment paper, spray your pan alongside vegetable spray.

NOTE: Don’t utilization a twisting displace when you lot are cutting your biscuits. It seals off the edges in addition to they won’t heighten real high.
