Recipe Introduction
(this would be great in chicken & dumplings)
List of Ingredients
2 c. sifted flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/3 c. vegetable oil
2/3 c. skim milk
Recipe
Sift together flour, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Blend in vegetable oil with fork or a pastry blender. Add milk and mix until dough forms. Gently knead on a lightly floured board, 15 to 20 times. Roll our or pat to 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter (or rim of a glass). Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees until lightly browned 12-15 minutes. Makes about a dozen.
For soft biscuits, arrange on baking sheet with sides touching. For crusty biscuits, place well apart.
Buttermilk biscuits: add 1/4 tsp. baking soda to dry ingredients and substitute buttermilk for regular milk.
