Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
0.33 cup shortening
1 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and gather all of your ingredients.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in the shortening until the mixture has a coarse, crumbly texture.
Slowly stir in the milk until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it 15 to 20 times. Pat or roll the dough to a thickness of 1 inch. Use a large biscuit cutter or a flour-dipped juice glass to cut out the biscuits. Repeat until all the dough is used. Brush off any excess flour, and arrange the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Enjoy your homemade biscuits!
