Cornmeal biscuits

24 servings

Quantity Ingredient
1½ cup All-purpose flour
½ cup Yellow cornmeal
2½ teaspoon Baking powder
½ teaspoon Salt
⅓ cup Shortening
¾ cup Milk

Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt; stir well. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Sprinkle milk evenly over flour mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 10 to 12 times. Roll dough to ½ inch thickness; cut with a 2 inch biscuit cutter. Place biscuits on greased baking sheets. Bake at 450 for 10 minutes or until biscuits are lightly browned.
