    “GRANNY’S BISQUITS. These are the bisquits my granny use to make(God rest her soul) I watched her make these so many times when I was a kid. I have never found a recipe that comes close to these. They are very moist and delicious.”

    Ingredients

  • 4 -6cupsself-rising flour
  • 1 1/2 cupsbuttermilk( start with about 1 1/2 c)

    • Directions

  • Mix flour and buttermilk together until mixture is stiff but not dry.
  • It will be sticky On floured surface turn dough out.
  • Add flour on top of dough and knead until dough is kind of dry but still sticky in the middle.
  • Pat dough out to about 1/2 in thick and cut with cutter.
  • In a cookie pan melt about 1/4 c butter flavored crisco (or reg. Crisco) in a 425 degree oven When melted remove from oven, tilt to cover pan.
  • Then, tilt pan so extra oil runs to one end.

  • Place bisquits close together in pan (touching).
  • Now bake at 425 degrees F until the tops are brown.
  • THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY,NO DOUBT ABOUT IT THE BEST, MOST DELICIOUS, MOIST, BISQUITS YOU HAVE EVER TASTED.
  • Hope you love these as much as we do.

  • “For not being chock full of fat like all my other biscuit recipes, these were really good. I dredged mine in melted margarine instead of shortening and used “buttermilk” that I made with milk and lemon juice since I didn’t have “real” buttermilk on hand. They were surprisingly flavorful and had a nice buttery crunch on the outside that reminded me of the crunch that pancakes and hush puppies get sometimes from being fried. I found them to be just a little too salty, but that may have been from using margarine instead of shortening. I will probably try them again with shortening soon. Thanks!”

  • “These were incredibly easy and the short list of ingredients made it even better.I love the texture of the inside and how soft and moist they are but yet the outside gets a bit of a slight crunch to them.I love these!!”

  • “fantastic bisquits. i was looking for the perfect bisquit recipe to make chicken bisquit sandwichs. this was perfect recipe. they were moist on the inside and a little crispy and flaky on top. i will make this bisquit recipe often. it’s very important not to kneed it to much or your bisquits will be tough.”

  • “Thank you for the great recipe. I made these for my 4th of july dinner that we are having on the 3rd of july and they were awsome. I had more people ask me for this recipe. So I just thought you would like to know that there a hit in this house and will be making them more often… Thanks Again…”
