Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup lard
2 cups buttermilk
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, and baking powder in a large bowl. Cut lard into flour mixture using a pastry blender until crumbly; stir in buttermilk. Turn mixture onto a floured surface and knead just a few times to form a moist dough.
Roll dough out to 1-inch thickness; cut biscuits with a cookie cutter or round glass. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden, about 12 minutes.
