Ingredients

2 cups flour, all-purpose
3 tablespoons buttermilk, powdered or nonfat dry milk powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
2 tablespoons pesto, prepared homemade or purchased
2/3 cup water

Directions

In a large bowl stir together flour, buttermilk or milk powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

With a pastry cutter, cut in shortening and pesto until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Make a well in the center; add water all at once.

Stir in just until dough clings together.

Turn out onto a lightly floured surface.

Knead gently for 10 to 12 strokes.

Roll or pat to 1/2 inch thickness.

Cut with a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter, dipping cutter into flour between cuts.

Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake in a 450 degrees F oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden.
