Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface and cutter
1 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus 2 tablespoons melted butter for brushing
1/2 cup vegetable shortening,cut into small pieces and chilled
1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sift together flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Repeat. Using a pastry cutter, cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in center, and add buttermilk. Stir until dough holds together.
  • Turn dough onto a generously floured surface. Fold dough over on itself 3 or 4 times. Pat to 1 inch thick. Cut out rounds with a floured 3-inch biscuit cutter. Place rounds 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gather scraps, and repeat. Brush tops with melted butter.
  • Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Serve warm, or let cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
