I am so excited to be sharing some of my favorite recipes! Now these are the best ever biscuits…except for this time….the time I decided to make them, to photograph them to put them on the blog, I mistakenly used some Omega 3 and flax flour. I DO NOT recommend it! I often mix up a few different flours…but DO NOT IN ANY WAY recommend this Omega 3 flaxeed stuff. I really like baking with the Robin Hood Nutri Flour, and sometimes mix up the Nurti Flour, and some almond flour or gluten free baking, a whole variety.

I never used to bake. I always loved to cook but the specifics of baking always eluded me. That was until I married a man who LOVED baked goods, and then when I was pregnant I CRAVED baking. Not baked goods, I didn’t need to eat them, I just needed to bake. Some sort of nesting/maternal instinct I suppose.

This biscuit recipe I got from my dad, who got it from Gil, and I have no idea where she got it from but it is QUICK and easy. I mean one bowl, no rolling, no cutting and so so good.

Preheat oven to 400c

2 cups Flour (Nutri, white, almond, whole wheat….use what you’ve got)

4tsp baking powder 

6tbsp butter

4tbsp sugar (a little more if you are making the biscuits for shortcake)

1/4tsp salt 

Blend these ingredients together with pastry cutter.

Mix in 3/4 cup milk with a fork until combined 

Form into biscuit size um…dough biscuits balls.

Place on preheated baking stone, or regular cookie sheet 

Bake 18-20 minutes. (more on the 20 minute end with the baking stone)

I really like getting variety especially when I’m making brunch, so cut up some bacon, cheddar and green onions and mix in to some. Roll a couple in cinnamon sugar and once baked drizzle with some icing.  Our favorite use is for strawberry shortcake! But try em, you won’t regret it!
