    List of Ingredients




    2 cups of all-purpose flour
    3 tablespoons of buttermilk powder or nonfat dry milk powder
    2 teaspoons of baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon of salt
    1/3 cup of butter-flavored shortening or reg. shortening
    2 tablespoons of homemade or purchased pesto
    2/3 cup of water

    In a large bowl stir together flour, buttermilk or milk powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. With a pastry cutter, cut in shortening and pesto until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center; add water all at once. Stir just until dough clings together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for 10 to 12 strokes. Roll or pat to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut with a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter, dipping cutter into flour between cuts. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in a 450ºF. oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Makes 10 to 12 biscuits.
