Biscuits are faster to make than bread – and 4th graders cannot wait!
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 c primary batter (See Sourdough Starter)
- 1 c flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 Tab sugar
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 c butter, melted
Directions:
- Wash your hands!
- Mix ingredients, except butter, gently. Dough will be very soft.
- Turn out on floured board and knead for approximately 1/2 minute.
- Roll out with floured rolling pan (or pat with floured hand until about 1/2 inch thick.
- Cut with floured biscuit cutter. Or small empty juice can)
- Carefully lift and dip in butter.
- Place close together on pan.
- Place in warm place for proofing for 30 minutes.
- Bake 30 – 35 minutes at 375º.
(I have been know to cheat and add a little yeast to insure the kids had successful biscuits.)
Serves: Makes 12 biscuits
