Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Stir together the flour, powered milk, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar and salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter and shortening into the dry mixture until blended thoroughly.
  4. Fold in the buttermilk until the dough comes together.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and use hands to press into a circle 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick.
  6. Cut out circles with a biscuit cutter or a glass. Place the biscuits in cast-iron skillets, then brush the tops with the melted butter.
  7. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
