No eggs in biscuits. It's not a cake. One rookie mistake on biscuits: over-working the dough. Cut in lard or shortning until you have a clumpy mix of flour and pea sized chunks. Make a well, add buttermilk, and just mix well enough to combine...this is where folks tend to want to over-work it. Roll out dough until about half inch thick, cut out circles, bake at 450 until brown.
2 cups all-purpose flour 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup lard or vegetable shortening, chilled 2 tablespoons butter, chilled 3/4 cup buttermilk
This will work....
