Angel Biscuits
Report
My fluffy Angel Biscuits are the perfect cross between biscuits and dinner rolls. With both buttermilk and yeast, they make a heavenly bread.

Ingredients
- 1 cup shortening Crisco recommended
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 2 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 2 packages dry yeast
- 5 cups all-purpose flour White Lily recommended
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- In a large saucepan over low heat, combine shortening, sugar, and buttermilk. Stir until the shortening melts and the mixture is just lukewarm.
- Remove the pan from the heat, sprinkle the dry yeast over the liquid mixture, and stir until well blended. Set aside.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually mix the wet ingredients and the flour mixture, stirring just until a dough forms.
- Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until you're ready to bake.
- When it's time to bake, grease a baking pan (a cake pan, 10-inch cast iron skillet, or glass baking dish all work well) and set it aside.
- Take a portion of the chilled dough (about ¼ of the total) and gently knead it a few times on a floured surface. Roll or pat it to a thickness of about ¾-inch.
- Cut out biscuits using a small biscuit cutter or shape them by hand.
- Arrange the biscuits with the cut sides touching in the prepared pan or dish.
- Lightly cover the rolls and let them rise for approximately 30 minutes.
- Just before the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Place the pan in the center of the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and brush the freshly baked biscuits with melted butter. Cool briefly before serving.
Notes
- Please see the many tips included in the post for more information.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container or resealable bag. They'll keep for 2 to 3 days at room temperature.
- May also be frozen in an airtight container. Reheat in a 350 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes.
