Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried herb leaves, such as rosemary, basil or thyme, or Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, herbs, salt and baking soda. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in buttermilk until dough leaves side of bowl (dough will be soft and sticky).
  • On lightly floured surface, lightly knead dough 10 times. Roll or pat dough about 1 inch thick. Cut with floured 2-inch cutter. On ungreased cookie sheet, place biscuits about 1 inch apart. Brush with butter.
  • Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
