Serves/Makes: 24
Ready in: 1-2 hrs

  • 2 packages (.25 ounce size) dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (105-110 degrees F)
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup shortening or unsalted butter

Combine yeast and warm water; let stand 5 minutes or until bubbly. Add buttermilk and set aside.

Combine dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Add buttermilk and yeast mixture gradually, gently combining with a fork.

Turn dough out onto a floured board (surface) and knead lightly 4 or 5 times. Roll dough to 1/2\" thickness, cut and place on greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.

To freeze, bake only 6 minutes; cool, freeze and wrap air tight. Finish baking on a greased baking sheet at 450 degrees for about 6 more minutes, or until browned.
