Ingredients

  • 2 C flour
  • 2 Tbsp Sugar
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/3 C oil
  • 2/3 C milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
  • Mix all of the dry ingredients together.
  • Put the oil in a small bowl, add the milk, but do NOT mix together.
  • Move liquid into dry ingredients and stir until well blended.
  • Knead a couple of times (I just used a silicone spatula, not my hands) to form it into a ball.
  • Roll out dough to 1/2" thick between two pieces of plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
  • Cut into 10-12 squares.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until very lightly browned. - - I spread the tops with butter for the last 2 minutes of baking.
