How to cook deliciously - White Lily Light and Fluffy Biscuits

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).

2. Stage

Place flour into a large bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender or two knives until crumbs are pea-sized. Stir in buttermilk with a fork just until moistened.

3. Stage

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 5 to 6 times, just until a smooth dough is formed. Roll dough into a 7-inch circle with a thickness of 3/4 to 1 inch. Dip a 2-inch biscuit cutter in flour and cut out as many biscuits as you can. Gather dough scraps and roll together into a ball; pat out to the same thickness as before and cut out addtional biscuits.

4. Stage

Transfer biscuits to a baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. (For softer biscuits, arrange so the edges almost touch.)

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush butter over top.
