Cloud Biscuits image

This is an old family recipe from my grandmother. These are VERY easy and was the 1st recipe I ever made (at 5 years old). These turn out so light and fluffy, you won't believe it.

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c white flour
4 tsp baking powder (yes--that amount is correct)

  • 3. Put the flour, baking powser, salt and shortening into a mixng bowl. With a pastry blender (or 2 forks) work the flour mixture into the shortening until mealy. Add the egg/milk mixture and mix until combined (this will be sticky)
  • 4. Pour out onto floured countertop or board. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup flour over the top and knead for 3 to 5 minutes. Flatten with your hand or a rolling opin until about 1/2 inch thick, and cut out your biscuits.
  • 5. Place into an ungreased pan and bake for 10-15 minutes until browned on top. (Check a middle one to be sure they are completely done)
  • 6. You now have a wonderful base for Sausage Gravy and Biscuits, GREAT for strawberry shortcake, biscuits with butter and honey....use your imagination!

These biscuits were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some herbs or cheese to the dough next time.

I'm always looking for new biscuit recipes, and this one definitely fits the bill. The cloud biscuits are light and fluffy, and the garlic butter sauce is the perfect complement.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the biscuits didn't rise very much. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These biscuits were a bit too dense for my taste, but the garlic butter sauce was amazing. I would definitely make the sauce again, but I would try a different biscuit recipe next time.

I've made these biscuits several times now, and they always turn out perfect. They're so easy to make, and they're always a crowd-pleaser.

These biscuits were a bit of a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the garlic butter sauce didn't help much.
