Almost TOOOO Easy Buttermilk Biscuits


2 1/4 cups all-purpose soft-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to blend. Add buttermilk to mixture and stir gently to incorporate. Stir in oil just until incorporated. (Overstirring will cause the biscuits to be tough.) Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead 7-8 times. Shape into a 1/2" thick rectangle, and cut out using your round biscuit cutter. (You can also use an empty vegetable can for this purpose if you don't have a cutter.) Place on a greased baking sheet about 1 inch apart and bake at 475 for 10-12 minutes. Serve warm, and expect to see lots of smiling faces like these as a result of your efforts. :)
