Easy Emergency Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- 4 TBS butter
- 1 cup milk
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Mix together flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Cut butter into small chunks then add to the flour mixture and cut into flour until you see pea like chunks. You can use a fork or pastry cutter for this process
- Once the butter is cut in, you can then add your milk. Stir until a dough forms, kneading. This dough will be a little sticky and that it okay.
- Sprinkle flour onto your counter stops, take the newly formed dough and begin to make into about 1/2 to 1 inch thickness shape. Most of the time mine is a rectangle. Once you get your desired thickness you can take your biscuit cutter or cup and begin cutting your biscuits.
- Cut as many biscuits as you can then you will have to rework your dough and begin again with the desired thickness.
- Add biscuits to a greased baking sheets. To help with rising, make sure the sides are touching. Then put into a preheated oven and bake until golden brown. Usually 15 minutes. Depending on ovens then may that longer or be faster.
