——– ———— ——————————–
2 c Plus 2 tbsp cake flour
2 ts Baking powder
1/4 ts EACH baking soda and salt
1/2 Stick cold margarine (not
Spread) — cut in small
Cubes
3/4 c Buttermilk

Heat oven to 450. Have a baking sheet ready.

In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking
soda and salt. Cut in margarine with pastry blended,
or work in with fingertips until lumps are no larger
than small peas. Stir in buttermilk with a fork until
mixture clumps together. Press dough into a ball.

On a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured
rolling pin, roll dough into a 10×6-inch rectangle.
With the long edge facing you, fold in both short ends
so they meet in center. Fold dough in half (as if you
were closing a book), forming a packet 4 layers thick.
Roll dough into a 6-inch square.

With a floured knife, cut dough into 16 squares, using
a straight downward motion with each cut (don’t saw
dough). Place biscuits 1 1/2 inches apart on
ungreased baking sheet.

Bake 10-12 minutes until biscuits are lightly browned.
Removed to a wire rack to cool.

STICKY ORANGE MUFFINS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads Breakfast

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 Oranges
1/4 c Honey
2 c Flour
1/2 c Uncooked oatmeal
-(not instant)
1 tb Baking powder
1 t Salt
1/2 c Sugar
2 Eggs — slightly beaten
2/3 c Milk
5 1/2 tb Butter — melted

PREHEAT OVEN TO 400F. Either grease the muffin pans or
line them with paper baking cups. Using the small side
of the grater, grate the rind from the oranges,
removing only the bright orange part, and set aside.
With a small, sharp knife, remove all the remaining
peel and, if necessary, trim the oranges all around so
that the slices will fit into the bottom of your
muffin pans. Cut the oranges into slices about
1/4-inch thick, pick out all the seeds and set the
slices aside. Put about 1 teaspoon honey in the bottom
of each muffin cup, and place an orange slice on top.
Combine the flour, oatmeal, baking powder, salt and
sugar in a large mixing bowl, and stir with a fork or
wire whisk to mix. Add the reserved grated orange
rind, the eggs, milk, and melted butter, and stir just
until mixed. Spoon the batter over the orange slices,
filling each cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 15-to-20
minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center
of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from the oven and
serve warm.
