These biscuits are a thing of our lazy Sundays. On these days, we put breakfast off until noon and we only leave the house for long walks around the hills and trails of our neighborhood. We figure after our intense past week and whatever the next week has to bring--we deserve it. This morning, we stayed home from work and decided to take it equally as easy since our weekend didn't prove too relaxing. We had our Sunday biscuits on Wednesday--so shoot me. These like all quick breads, don't require rising. I made biscuits and gravy for my dad on Father's day while visiting this month. These go perfect with jelly, vegan margerine, or smothered in my country gravy.

INGREDIENTS

• 2 Cup Flour
• 1 Teaspoons Salt, depending on how much salt you like (I usually do 2)
• 1 Tablespoon Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
• 2/3 Cup Soymilk
• 1/3 Cup Vegetable Shortening

DIRECTIONS

1. PREHEAT oven to 425
2. In a bowl, sift: Flour, Salt, Baking Powder and Sugar
3. Add in Soymilk and Vegetable Shortening. Mix and knead.
4. Keep Kneading until the dough in manageable.
5. Turn bowl onto a floured surface.
6. TIP: I like to use plastic wrap on my surface. Before rolling the dough, I place another sheet of plastic wrap on the top and roll. The dough won't stick to your rolling pin.
7. Roll the dough out 1/2" thick.
8. With a biscuit cutter, cut about 8 circles.
9. Place on a baking sheet or baking stone.
10. Bake 8-10 minutes.
11. Remove from the oven and top with your favorate spread or gravy.

Here is a warm biscuit with raspberry preserves.

You must try it with my country gravy. It's the ultimate southern comfort breakfast.
