Yeast Biscuits Recipe

Easier than you’d think and so rewarding getting to knead and punch that dough.
Can be made ahead of time and frozen, ready to pop in the oven.

Yeast Biscuits

5 cups sifted, self rising flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup shortening
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 packages yeast (dissolved in 1/4 cup lukewarm water)
2 cups buttermilk

Combine dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Stir in yeast and buttermilk. Knead until smooth and elastic. Let rise until double in bulk. Punch down. Roll and cut with a biscuit cutter. Bake at 450° for 10-20 minutes. These can be frozen after cutting and before cooking.
