These Easy No Shortening Biscuits are really great and they really are easy. They are surprisingly flaky for a biscuit that has no shortening.
My “go-to” recipe for biscuits now!
You can make them even easier by just dropping on the cookie sheet instead of rolling out!
Brush a little butter on top to give it a little extra flavor and color.
