My sister sent me this recipe a while ago. This bread is just what it says. Good bread for those who don't like to knead and roll out biscuits and clean up the mess.

4 to 6 servings

1/4 cup shortening
2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/2 cups milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place 1 tablespoon of shortening in an 8-inch cast iron skillet and place in oven to heat up.

In a medium bowl, combine remaining shortening, flour and milk, mixing well. Pour immediately into hot skillet and return to over and bake for about 15 minutes until crusty brown.
