Ingredients

1/4 cup shortening

2 cups all-purpose flour - whole wheat will work

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil - dried will work

2 teaspoons dried basil leaves

1 tablespoon sugar -- if desired

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

3/4 cup milk (about)

Directions

Heat oven to 450º. Cut shortening into remaining ingredients except milk in medium bowl with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in just enough milk so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball. (Too much milk will make dough sticky; not enough will make biscuits dry.)

Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 20 to 25 times.

Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter.

Place on ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart for crusty sides,

touching for soft sides.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
