Okay, I don't have the budget mix but anybody have a good biscuit recipe that's pretty simple? I have a family recipe I left at my mom's (an hour away) that is centuries old! I don't have it with me and it would probably take a pretty long time .....
Anyway, I did a search on the forum but couldn't find anything. I must be missing it! Please give good biscuit recipes, girls! lol.

she has some wonderful tips about the making of biscuits.

I don't know about the BP can but this is what I do for mine:
3 cups unbleached flour
2/3 cup butter
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup buttermilk OR 2/3 cup sour milk (milk with 2 tsp vinegar added)
I make this in a food processor. Put flour, sugar, BP, Soda, salt in food processor (or bowl) and blend. Cut butter into small pieces and pulse until looks like course meal - leave some chunks but not larger than a pea. (cut in shortening with two knives or pastry blender if by hand). Add buttermilk (or sour milk) all at once and run processor until dough forms a ball. Pat out on lightly floured wax paper about 1/2" thick. Cut with cutter. Bake in preheated 400 oven 12 min. or until golden. Makes 1 dozen. These reheat well and the kids always ate them left over because the extra sugar makes them slightly sweet. I have no idea where this originated but I've been making them this way for more than 30 yrs.

Could one of you kind ladies post the biscuit recipe on the baking powder can please? I don't use that kind of baking powder, and I don't want to buy a can just for the recipe but I'd like to try it! Thanks so much.

I like the one on the back of the powder can...make it quite a lot and it hasn't failed me ever. I use unbleached flour, have used whole wheat but like the unbleached white better for biscuits.

The one I use is on the baking powder container - I have run across a few other recipes, like in Better Homes and Gardens magazine, but it seems to be so close to the same I just stick with the can. lol. |
