Pone Bread (Biscuit Bread)

Ingredients

  • 2 c self-rising flour
  • 1/4 c melted lard, shortening or butter (a little more for greasing the skillet)
  • 1½ c buttermilk
  • Melted salted butter (To brush on when removing from oven)

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 375

  2. Grease an 8- or 9-inch skillet with lard, shortening or butter. Tip: Place the skillet in the oven while it’s heating up. This will give the bread a crust. (1/4 c melted lard, shortening or butter)

  3. Mix flour, lard and buttermilk together.

  4. Stir till combined. It will be like a thick pancake batter. Don’t over stir. (2 c self-rising flour, 1/4 c melted lard, shortening or butter, 1½ c buttermilk)

  5. Pour the batter in the hot skillet and bake for about 30 minutes till golden brown.

  6. Brush with melted salted butter. (Melted salted butter)
