These turn nice and golden and have a slightly crisp outside with a fluffy, buttery inside. I like these because they taste so good and are healthier than the traditional version, using margarine instead of shortening, butter, or lard. Buttermilk can be subbed for milk for a tangier flavor. Feel free to post pictures, and thanks!!

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450Â°F.
Sift together dry ingredients, then add margarine and cut in until coarse and crumbly like cornmeal.
Add milk and mix with a fork.
On a floured surface, knead gently turning over several times. Roll out to 1/2 inch thickness and cut out biscuits. Place with sides touching on an ungreased cookie sheet.
OR drop by large spoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet with sides touching.
Bake for 9-12 minutes, till golden, turning around once halfway through for even browning.
Serve warm with butter and fried chicken!
