Directions:In a small bowl stir together the yeast, warm water and 1 1/2 tsp sugar and let stand for 5 minutes until yeast foams.
Add the buttermilk and shortening.
Sift the flour, remaining Tbsp sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a mixing bowl.
Add the yeast-buttermilk mixture and stir by hand until just moistened. Batter will look coarse.
Transfer dough to lightly floured surface and knead a few times.
Roll or press the dough to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Using a 2 inch cookie cutter, cut the biscuits and transfer to a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper.
Allow biscuits to rise in a warm draft free place for about 20 minutes until nearly doubled.
Bake biscuits at 400º for 12-14 minutes until golden on top. |
