From The Joy. The Robber loved loved loved these. We used them to make BAT (bacon, avocado, tomato) sandwiches. So good! My favorite. Mmmmm.
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. double-acting baking powder
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 C. lard or 5 T. butter
3/4 C. buttermilk
Directions:
1) In medium mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, sugar, and baking soda. Cut in lard/butter.
2) Add buttermilk and mix only as necessary with minimum number of strokes.
3) Turn the dough onto a floured board. Knead it gently for 1/2 minute. Pat the dough to the thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut with a biscuit cutter.
4) Bake 10 to 12 minutes at 450F.
Note: The Joy says this recipe make 24 1 1/2 inch biscuits. I find that it only makes 11 biscuits worthy of BAT sandwiches. Who wants to eat that tiny of a biscuit? I suggest doubling the recipe if you are feeding a crowd, or making just one for yourself so you can have leftovers as they are delicious after a few days in the fridge as well.
