Ingredients
- 2 cups bread flour
- 5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons shortening
- 7/8 cup milk (7 fluid ounces = just short of 1 cup)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
How to Make
-
Step 1: Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Work in the shortening with your fingertips or pasty cutter. Add the milk, stirring constantly to distribute evenly (personally, I'd gently fold in the milk, so as not to toughen up the gluten).
-
Step 2: Roll thin and spread with the melted butter and brown sugar.
-
Step 3: Roll up in jellyroll fashion. Cut in 1-inch slices. Place each slice, cut-side down, in well-buttered muffin tins. Bake in a preheated 350-degrees oven (the recipe doesn't indicate an oven temperature, but say's "place in a hot oven") for about 15 minutes. Makes about 16 biscuits.
