The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Baking Powder Biscuits

Aunt Sheri Southerland gave us this recipe and it it our new favorite

2 C. flour
1 TB organic evaporated sugar cane
1 TB baking powder
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 C. palm shortening
3/4 C. milk

Combine dry ingredients.  Cut in palm shortening.  Stir in milk.  Combine dough and knead 10 strokes.  Cut with biscuit cutter and place on cookie sheet sides not touching.  Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

These are nice and fluffy biscuits that I make several times a week for Daddy for breakfast.  I like to make a batch x5 and store it in a container.  Then I just have to measure out 3 C. of mix and 3/4 C. of milk.  Super easy in the morning!  :)
Love Always,
Mommy
