LOW-FAT HOMEMADE BISCUITS



Low-Fat Homemade Biscuits image

Biscuits are one of those items that go with an array of dishes. I've recreated this recipe to be lowfat and sugar free, so you REALLY can't go wrong with these! They brown nice and light on the outside, yet stay really moist and soft on the inside. Recently, I just made this recipe, sliced the biscuits in half, and stuffed them with a scrambled egg dish and cheese. Really tasty! Of course, they also pair nicely with a good stew, too! Or just eat them by themselves! :0) Enjoy!!

FAT FREE, LOW CAL BISCUITS!



Fat Free, Low Cal Biscuits! image

Let me start off by saying HALLELUJAH!! My parents are BIG biscuit eaters, and dinner every night is a battle for me to turn down the biscuits. I adapted this recipe from a traditional "mayo" biscuit, and it is yummy! They come out very fluffy and are not cursed with the nasty baking powder flavor that most healthy biscuits have. I hope to soon experiment with oat flour in this recipe!! This is by far one of my favorite healthified recipes!
