Angel flake biscuits

Ingredients/Components

• sugar - 1/8 c
• salt - 1 tsp
• flour
• buttermilk - 1 c
• baking powder - 1 tsp
• baking soda - 1/2 tsp
• shortening - 1/2 c
• warm water - 1/4 c
• dry yeast - 1 pkg

How to make angel flake biscuits:

Dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside. Mix dry ingredients, cutting in the shortening as you would do for a pie crust. Stir in the buttermilk and water/yeast mixture. Blend thoroughly; the dough is now ready to be refrigerated or made into biscuits.

When you are ready to make biscuits, turn out on a floured board and knead lightly. Pinch off dough or cut with a cookie cutter. Place in a greased pan. Bake in a 400° oven until slightly brown.
