Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  2. Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, and baking powder. Cut lard into flour mixture using a pastry blender until crumbly, stir in buttermilk. Turn mixture onto a floured surface and knead just a few times to form a moist dough.

  3. Roll dough out 1-inch thick, cut biscuits with a cookie cutter or round glass. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden, about 12 minutes.

Recipe Yield

18 biscuits

Recipe Note

This country fair award-winning recipe was perfected by my grandmother on the northern Canadian prairies. Sadie's advice - leave little chunks of lard the size of peas when cutting the flour in. Can be served at breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
