Preheat oven to 450?F. Recipe is for 6 large biscuits.
Ingredients
1 C flour
1/2 Tbsp (or 1-1/2 tsp) baking powder
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 C of butter or applesauce, or any combo thereof
1/2 C milk
Mix all the dry ingredients, then cut in the butter or applesauce with a fork until crumbly. Pour in the milk and mix with a spatula until just combined, adding a little flour if it's too watery. Using two large spoons, drop the batter onto a greased baking sheet or silpat into 6 large mounds. Wet fingers and smooth the edges until it's round and gently patting the top to flatten a little. Bake for 12 minutes or until the tops start to brown. Rub the tops with butter while they're hot and allow to cool on a rack.
Create breakfast sandwiches with eggs, cheese, bacon, ham, etc. Or spread cream cheese, jam, butter, honey, sausage gravy, etc. Or simply enjoy with a cup of coffee.
