DIRECTIONS

Combine the dry ingredients. Stir in the shortening and blend (use a fork or pastry blender) until you have fine crumbs. Add the buttermilk and blend until smooth.


Heat up your skillet on the stove. While that's going on....on a floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle, about 9" wide (a bit smaller than your skillet)


Place into your hot, greased skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side over a medium low heat


Then put the whole thing in the oven, skillet and all, and bake for about 15 minutes
