I got this recipe from a friend. These are quick and easy to make. Please do not substitute sweet milk for the buttermilk. (It is okay to make your own by adding a Tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to milk and let it sit 5 minutes.) Please note that the amount of flour is approximate. If your dough is too sticky you can add more by sprinkling it on top while kneading.
Ingredients:
2 cups flour (approximately)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup shortening or 1/4 cup butter
1 cup buttermilk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425.
2. Mix first 5 ingredients with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the size of small peas.
3. Stir in the buttermilk.
4. Knead for a couple of minutes on a lightly floured surface.
5. Roll or pat out dough for biscuits.
6. Bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned.
