Easy biscuits

[tryinhard]

Found this one today and tried it out. A little heavy but worked good. 1 cup of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix the dry ingrediants well then add enough water to make a sticky dough. Drop in preheated dutch oven and cook 10 -15 min at around 350*. You can also wrap this around a stick and cook!

I tried your recipe, but added a tablespoon of sugar and it helped alot! Thanks!

I mixed up a batch last night (wound up substituting some baking soda for baking powder and using a bit of sugar) and they disappeared pretty quickly when I took them to a gathering of 20/30-something year olds!

Google master mix recipes. The use of baking powder might not pass the PC/HC test but the biscuits will. Also good for pancakes.

use buttermilk if available - or sour milk will do even better. it reacts with the bp to rise the dough when heated.

Baking powder reacts to heat by releasing CO2. Baking soda will release CO2 in the presence of an acid like buttermilk. A primitive form of baking soda was available early 1800's so that might even be HC/PC.
