Rec: Not-as-Sweet Angel Biscuits
From: Karen/No.Ca
Tim's Grandmother's Angel Biscuits for those
that asked...11 Jul
5 cups a.p. flour, sifted
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
3 tsp. baking powder
3 tbls. sugar
3/4 cup shortening
1 packet of yeast (2 1/2 tsp.)
2 cups buttermilk
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Sift dry
ingredients into large mixing bowl. Cut in
shortening with a pastry blender. Stir in
buttermilk, work into a dough. Place in a
greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and
place in fridge overnight.
The dough lasts about a week in the fridge.
You pinch off what you need, roll or shape
into 1/2-thick biscuits and bake at 400F for
12 minutes or until golden brown.
These are a real treat and totally yum, the
only biscuits I will eat. A basket of these
on the table when company comes disappears in
minutes since most people have never had
yeast-raised biscuits. And, they are really
easy. With the dough in the fridge, you can
have fresh baked biscuits in the time it
takes to heat the oven and bake.
