Recipe Introduction
These are a delicious cross between a roll and a biscuit.
You roll them out like a biscuit, and they rise like a
roll.
List of Ingredients
1 (.25 ounce) package active
dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110
degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 cups buttermilk
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons white sugar
3/4 cup shortening
Recipe
1 In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let
stand until creamy, about 5 minutes. Add buttermilk to yeast
mixture, and set aside.
2 In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder,
baking soda, and salt. Cut in shortening with a pastry
blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in yeast
mixture until dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out
onto a floured surface, and knead 4 or 5 times.
3 On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/2 inch
thickness. Cut out biscuits with a 2 1/2 inch round cutter. Place
on lightly greased baking sheets, barely touching each
other. Cover, and let rise in a warm place free from drafts
for 1 hour, or until almost doubled in size. Preheat oven
to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
4 Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until browned.
