Angel Biscuits
1 pkg. dry yeast
2 Tbsp. warm water 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup buttermilk
Soften yeast in warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes. In the meantime, in a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening--until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the dry mixture. Add softened yeast and buttermilk all at once. Using a fork, stir until just moistened. Turn out and gently knead until dough is smooth. Roll dough to ½ inch and cut into biscuits. Bake at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
