Title: Skillet Buttermilk Biscuits
Categories: None
Yield: 30 Biscuits

4 c Vegetable Oil
1 c Whole Wheat Flour
1 c All Purpose Flour
1 1/2 ts Baking Soda
1/4 ts Salt
1/4 c Vegetable Shortening
3/4 c Buttermilk

Pour 1" of oil into a medium size skillet. Heat to 370 degrees. Combine the
flours, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the vegetable
shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk.
Mix lightly with a fork until the mixture clings together and forms a soft
ball of dough. Break off pieces of the mixture, 1 per finished roll. Roll
each piece into a 1" ball. Flatten the balls. Fry the biscuits until golden
on each side (3-4 minutes total). Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
