* Make sure to get a grown-up's permission to use the stove!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut butter and shortening into flour mixture until mixture is crumbly. Stir in buttermilk.
On a lightly floured surface, knead dough 3 or 4 times to incorporate ingredients and smooth dough.
Pat dough into a rectangle about 1–inch thick cut with 2–inch biscuit cutter into 8 rounds. Shape any excess dough into an additional biscuit.
Bake on ungreased baking sheet until biscuits are golden brown 10–15 minutes.
