Prep Time: 15 minutes

 

Ingredients

 

2 cups self-rising flour

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 cup butter or margarine

3/4 cup buttermilk

 

Directions:

 

1. Preheat oven to 425 degree F. In a medium mixing

bowl stir together flour and baking soda. With a

pastry blender or two knives cut in butter or

margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make

a well in center. Add the buttermilk all at once; stir

until moistened.

2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.

Quickly knead dough by gently folding and pressing

dough 10 to 12 strokes or until nearly smooth. Pat or

lightly roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut dough

with a floured 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place

biscuits 1 inch apart on a lightly greased baking

sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden.

Remove biscuits from baking sheet and serve hot. Makes

jalapeno peppers (3 ounces), 2 tablespoons snipped

chives, and 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper into
