   Gently mix the buttermilk and lard into the flour with your hands until a soft dough forms.

   Coat your hands well with flour and gently form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball.

   Place the dough balls in the pie tins, 7 per tin.

   Gently press each ball down to flatten.
