Moms Homemade Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk; knead dough gently. Roll out to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Freeze option: Freeze cooled biscuits in a resealable freezer container. To use, heat in a preheated 350° oven 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the shortening and mix until in little pieces. Add milk a little at a time and mix until it forms a ball.
• Roll out on floured board to 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch thick. Cut out in desired size and dip in melted shortening. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes.
• Variation: For shortcakes add 2 tablespoons for sugar to the dough and roll dough out to 1/2 inch thick.

Steps:

• Mix together flour, sugar and salt. Add baking powder and then cut in shortening with pastry blender until thoroughly incorporated.
• Add milk and mix only until a soft dough forms. Dough may be slightly sticky but that is normal.
• Generously flour counter or board and transfer dough on top dusting with a small amount of flour if dough is sticky. Pat dough out with hands till about 1 inch thick and cut with biscuit cutter or large glass dipped in flour. Place on baking sheet about 1 1/2 inch apart. Bake 425 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
• Note: Do not roll out with rolling pin as that will make for harder biscuits.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Mix all ingredients well. If dough seems dry, add a little bit extra milk until mixes well.
• Place dough onto lightly greased cookie sheet in biscuit shapes. My mother didn't even shape them; she would just put globs of dough down and they would be irregular shapes.
• Lightly dust flour on the top of the biscuits.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients.
• Cut in shortening.
• add just enough milk to make the mixture moist, you probably won't use the full 1/2 cup.
• Knead lightly until smooth. Don't over do it. If you do, you will have a hard flat biscut instead of one that is light and fluffy.
• Press dough flat to 1/2 inch. Cut into 2 inch circles.
• Place biscuits shoulder to shoulder on ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Stir all ingredients together until flour is wet and dough sticks together. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a preheated skillet and bake 12 minutes or until brown.

Steps:

• Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. Pour cereal and peanuts into the pan and spread around evenly.
• In a heavy sauce pan, bring sugar and corn syrup to a rolling boil, over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter. Pour the sugar mixture evenly over the cereal and peanuts. Let cool and cut into squares.
