Classic Homemade Biscuits
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 3/4 cup cold milk
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary ingredients before commencing the cooking process. Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius).
2
Combine the dry ingredients, including flour, baking powder, and salt, in a large mixing container. Use a fork or pastry blender to work the shortening into the dry ingredients until they form a rough, crumbly mixture.
3
Gradually add milk to the flour mixture while stirring with a fork. Continue mixing until the dough comes together, becoming soft, moist, and easily detachable from the sides of the bowl.
4
Transfer the dough to a lightly dusted surface and give it a brief, gentle kneading motion, repeating this process 5 to 7 times.
5
Roll the dough out into a sheet of approximately half an inch thickness and use a floured cookie cutter to create the desired biscuit shape. Re-roll any unused dough and repeat the cutting process.
6
Arrange the biscuits on ungreased baking sheets, leaving space between each biscuit. Place these in a preheated oven and bake until they achieve a golden brown color, approximately 10 minutes.
