-
1 package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
-
1/2 cup warm water (100 degrees to 110 degrees)
-
5 cups all-purpose flour (about 22 1/2 ounces)
-
1/4 cup sugar
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1 tsp baking soda
-
1 tsp salt
-
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
-
2 cups low-fat buttermilk
-
Cooking spray
-
1 tbsp butter, melted
Recipe Method
1.
Dissolve the
yeast in 1/2
cup warm water in a small bowl, and let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a large bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add yeast mixture and buttermilk to flour mixture; stir just until moist. Cover and chill 1 hour.
3. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
4. Turn the dough out onto a heavily floured surface; knead lightly 5 times. Roll dough to a 1/2-inch thickness; cut with a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Brush the melted butter over the biscuit tops. Bake at 450 degrees for 12 minutes or until golden.
