Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 cup Crisco shortening
- 1 cup buttermilk
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.2
In medium mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients.3
Using fork, cut in shortening until mixture resembles course meal with some tiny bits of shortening still visible.4
Add buttermilk and toss with fork until mixture forms a soft dough.5
Turn out onto floured board and with a floured dough scraper gently toss dough to coat with flour until dough is no longer sticky.6
Pat dough into a disk and fold one half over onto the other half.7
Pat out to about 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch thickness.8
Using a floured 2-inch cutter stamp out biscuits (meaning cut straight down and up without twisting or turning cutter).9
Place biscuits onto ungreased baking sheet.10
Bake for about 12 minutes or until biscuits are light golden brown. Serve immediately.11
Note: If you don't have buttermilk you can use regular milk and omit the baking soda. They just wont be buttermilk biscuits.

These are the best biscuits I have ever made. I have tried several recipes on this website and finally found the right one. Some of the other recipes were too salty. These biscuits came out fluffy and flaky. The flavor was exactly what a biscuit should be. My BF said that these were the best biscuits I have ever made. Great recipe!!!

These were ok, not the flakiest I thought they were going to be. I handled the least amount possible, though I did cut the shortening in with quick pulses in the food processor. I think that cold shortening would have worked better. Still on the hunt for my HG of biscuits!

This is very similar to the popular KFC clone recipe. They turned out great, I didn't have enough Crisco so used 1/2 butter 1/2 Criso. Made really yummy breakfast biscuit sandwiches with them using sausage, cheddar, red onion, egg, and tomato as a filler.
