Slap-Your-Mama Biscuits
2 c. self-rising flour
1/4 c. vegetable oil (plus 2 Tbsp.)
3/4 c. buttermilk
Put 2 cups flour in mixing bowl and make a depression in top of flour. In
depression, add oil and buttermilk. Blend thoroughly without overworking. Pour 2
tablespoons oil in
black iron No. 8 skillet. Spread oil in skillet with first one hand then the
other to coat skillet and hands; quickly knead dough and pinch off lumps of
dough about golf-ball size and
work in to flattened ovals and place in skillet. Should make 8 biscuits. Preheat
oven to 450 degrees and bake until light brown (15 minutes).
They will be so good that if your mama reaches for the last one, you will slap
her hand and grab it for yourself!
