How to Make Quickest Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
- In a large bowl, cut 1/2 cup Crisco shortening into 2 cups of all-purpose flour using a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1 cup buttermilk and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Place a well-seasoned cast iron skillet in the preheating oven. Add 1 teaspoon of Crisco to the hot skillet.
- Lightly flour a clean work surface.
- Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and gently knead 2-3 times to bring together.
- Lightly flour a rolling pin and roll the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness.
- Fold the dough in half.
- Cut out biscuits using a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a drinking glass.
- Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven.
- Place biscuits in the hot, greased skillet, turning once to coat both sides with the melted Crisco.
- Bake in the 500°F (260°C) oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the best, quickest biscuits you've ever eaten!
