Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shortening
- 3/4 cup milk
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently, 205 degrees Celsius. Line a baking sheet with a non-stick coating to prevent sticking.
2
In a mixing bowl, blend together flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Utilize a pastry blender or your fingers to work the shortening into the dry ingredients until you achieve a fine, crumbly texture.
3
Gradually add milk to the mixture and incorporate it with a fork until you form a soft, pliable dough. Knead the dough 8 to 10 times to develop its structure.
4
Roll out the dough to a minimum thickness of half an inch, making it easy to cut into desired shapes. Use a round cookie or biscuit cutter to create uniform rounds.
5
Place the cut-out dough shapes on the prepared baking sheet and allow them to relax for a short period of time.
6
Bake the dough in your preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Serve the warm biscuits immediately.
