- 2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons shortening
- 2/3 cup skim, 1%, or 2% milk
- 2/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt
Preheat oven to 450°.
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in the shortening with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture is crumbly.
Mix the milk and yogurt in a small bowl until well combined. Add to the dry ingredients all at once and mix until just combined, do not over-mix. If dough is too dry add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.
Drop onto greased baking sheet using a 1/4 cup, into 12 equal biscuits. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheet immediately.
