1. yep - here is what I do |
|
1 1/2 cups of flour tablespoon of baking powder dash of salt 1/2 stick of butter
mix these
then add 1/2 cup of milk
Do not overwork the dough
bake 12-13 minutes or so at 450
Makes a little over 3 biscuits. And much better than bisquick I cut down the original due to making these for only 2 of us. And 1 1/2 of these is just about right on the weekend.

If you can get White Lily flour this makes an incredibly light biscuit but you won't be disappointed if you use any all purpose flour.
2 cups flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups heavy cream, plus additional for brushing 3 inch round cutter
Preheat oven to 425degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Add cream and stir until dough forms. Gather dough and gently knead 6 times on lightly floured surface.
Pat dough into 10 inch round (1/2 inch thick). Cut out as many rounds as possible and invert rounds onto baking sheet. Gather scraps, pat out and cut remaining.
Brush tops with cream and bake until pale golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
