Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add the milk and stir until the dough follows a fork around the bowl. Knead slightly.
  4. Pat out the dough onto a lightly floured board and cut it into individual biscuits.
  5. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 10 to 20 minutes, or until brown.

Notes

  • To reheat leftover biscuits, wrap them in foil and heat in a 300°F oven for 10 minutes. Open the foil halfway through heating if you want them crisp.
