Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup Shortening, chilled
- 2 tablespoons Melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to evenly blend the dry ingredients.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until bubbly and activated.
Pour the buttermilk and melted butter into the yeast mixture, stirring gently.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the chilled shortening into the flour mixture until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours. The dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut rounds from the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.
Serve warm with your favorite spreads or fillings. Enjoy!
