GREAT GRANDMA'S PIONEER TRAIL BISCUITS
My Great-Grandmother Kennedy use to make these biscuits and passed the recipe down, it became modernized with the use of an indoor oven.

Steps:
- 1. Place all dry ingredients into a large bowl. Cut in the lard, until mixture looks like meal. Stir in buttermilk. If dough is not pliable, add just enough buttermilk to make a soft, puffy dough that is easy to roll out. Knead dough on lightly floured board about one to two minutes or 25 to 30 times. Roll out dough to about 3/4 inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter, or use a glass of the right size. Place on greased baking sheet. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
- 2. *** I don't use LARD. I use either Butter Flavored Crisco or Margarine. The Pioneers cooked them a bit differntly as there were no modern ovens on the trail... They made make-shift ovens that were sitting on coals of the campfire and more coals on top to get a hot oven effect. They also spent a lot of time baking as the ovens were small. They also sometimes made them in a skillet or a heavy pot with a lid (Dutch Oven)with coals under and about 12 - 15 on top.

My Great Great Grandmother Eliza Griffin Andrews immigrated from England to Canada to the United States of America. She had a large family, they traveled in covered wagons. She cooked over an open fire and made wonderful things like this recipe to keep her children happy and energized... I am so lucky to have so many of her recipes that have survived all these years! I hope you will try it. The photo is of her daughter Charlotte Andrews Kennedy... I was a little girl when my great grandma died... but remember her so well... Families Are Forever! Play With Your Food!

Steps:
- In a saucepan, bring milk and sugar to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Keep boiling and stirring quickly to a boil that can't be stirred down.
- Remove from heat and stir in the nutmeg, vanilla and butter.
- Serve on waffles, french toast and pancakes. It is very delightful!
- *** Keep in mind... the milk back then was quite different from what we have today... You may want to use part cream. *** Sometimes we add cinnamon too.
BUTTERMILK SYRUP
This is a great homemade syrup that we found at a little B&B in South Dakota. This syrup is wonderful on hot, fresh blueberry pancakes.
