Your biscuits don't have any leavening; perhaps that is the problem. This is the recipe I learned from my mother, and I have always had good luck with it.
Baking Powder Biscuits Sift together: 2 C flour 2 1/2 t. baking powder 1 t. salt Cut in finely: 1/4 C shortening (we use Crisco now, but we used to use lard. Both work well.) Stir in: 3/4 C milk Knead the dough lightly. Roll or pat out about 1/2 an inch thick. Cut. Place on ungreased baking sheet. (My mom and I pour a small puddle of vegetable oil on the sheet, lay each biscuit in the oil and then flip it to lightly coat both sides. Then we place them on the baking sheet so that they just touch.) Bake until golden brown at 450°. (about 10-12 minutes.) Good luck! |
