Old-Fashioned Strawberry Recipe




Serves 6
2 cups Sifted Flour
4 tsps. Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tbsp Sugar
1/3 cup Shortening
3/4 cup Milk (about)
Butter
3 cups Crushed Strawberries
Mix and sift dry ingredients; cut in shortening with knife or pastry
blender. Add milk gradually to make a soft dough. Turn out on
lightly floured board & knead just enough to shape into smooth
ball. Roll or pat lightly 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter
or bake in large sheets or bake in muffin pans. Brush tops with
butter and bake in hot oven at 450 °F for 15 minutes. Split hot
biscuits. Put together again with filling of sweetened strawberries.
Top with more fruit. Serve at once with plain or whipped cream.
