Here's a traditional one:
Buttermilk Biscuits:
3 cups AP flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon bakng soda
5 tablespoons chilled solid vegetable shortening.
1 cup buttermilk or sour milk. (1cup milk w 1 teas. vinegar let stand 5 minutes)
Preheat oven to 425. Sift dry ingredients.
Break shortening into small pieces and put in the flour mix.
With your fingers, mix shortening into the flour mix unti it resembles a coarse meal. It's fine if there are a few lumps of shortening.
Add milk and mix with a fork until a dough forms.
Knead 4-6 times and bring it together in a ball.
Divide into 12 pieces.
Shape biscuits by hand.
Lay in an ungreased pan just touching.
Bake at 425 for 12 to 15 minutes.
Yes, you could roll out the dough and cut them. But, you don't need to. I haven't done that in well over 20 years.
LAZY COOKS BISCUITS: Makes 8
I use this recipe a lot. (It's really a simple scone recipe without the sugar and spice). Makes a light biscuit. If it looks like a biscuit and tastes like a biscuit--it's a biscuit.
2 cups flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk
1/4 cup oil
1 egg
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Do it...it matters!
Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
Whisk wet ingredients together in a small bowl.
Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and combine quickly with a large spoon.
Knead only enough to bring together. (4-6 times)
Pull off a wad of dough and shape by hand.
Lay biscuits in the pan just touching.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes.

These are the best:
Angel Biscuits
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 cups buttermilk
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons white sugar
3/4 cup shortening
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes. Add buttermilk to yeast mixture, and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in yeast mixture until dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead 4 or 5 times.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out biscuits with a 2 1/2 inch round cutter. Place on lightly greased baking sheets, barely touching each other. Cover, and let rise in a warm place free from drafts for 1 hour, or until almost doubled in size. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until browned.

open can
separate.
put on baking sheet and put in oven.
Easiest way:)
I make mine out of bread dough.
I kneed by flour, fold, flour, fold, etc...
I make a big flat thing and cut them with an upside down glass.
Or add milk to the dough and spoon them.
Garlic and butter with a little paprika. Like Red Lobster biscuits.
Many recipes on the web for biscuits.
