Almond Biscuits

Almond Biscuits

Preheat oven to 450.

2/3 cup shortening
3 1/2 cups flour
5 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 T sugar
1 1/2 cups Almond Breeze unsweetened vanilla almond milk

Mix dry ingredients.

Cut shortening into flour mixture until texture resembles fine crumbs.

Add milk and mix until dough rounds up into ball.

Knead dough gently.  Kneading improves texture but do not over do it or biscuits will be tough.

Turn dough onto floured surface, roll to half inch thickness, and cut into about 15-16 pieces.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 8-10 minutes.

You want them slightly browned but not over browned.
