Fluffy Biscuits


So for my birthday, my husband got me this cookbook "Taste of Home Cookbook" Cooks who Care edition. So I made him homemade biscuits (gravy, eggs and bacon) one morning. The biscuits were really good and easy to make.

Fluffy Biscuits

2 cups all-purpose flour
4 tsp. baking powder
3 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shortening
1 egg
2/3 cup milk

In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat egg with milk, stir into dry ingredients ust until moistened.

Turn onto a well-floured surface; knead 20 times. Roll to 3/4-in. thickness ; cut with a floured 2-1/2 in. biscuit cutter.

Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
