Biscuits

I really really like these as strawberry shortcake (with fresh or frozen-thawed strawberries and whipped cream/cool whip). You can also eat them with jam or (though I've not tried this) with potatoes and gravy...

Ingredients you will need:

1 & 1/2 cups unbleached white flour

1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour*

1 Tablespoon Rumford's baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup canola, vegetable, or light olive oil

6 - 8 ounces soy milk

Stir the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Cut the oil in with a pastry blender or two butter knives until the mixture is pebbly. Gradually stir in the soy milk. Stop adding the soy milk when the mixture separates from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball. (if you add a little too much, that's okay, just add a little bit more flour). Roll the dough out on a floured surface and cut into biscuits. Bake on a cookie sheet at 425 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown on the outside and slightly doughy on the inside. They are excellent served warm.

*if you want these to be extra flaky, try using all white flour instead... I did that once and they were goooood... but I guess making them with a little whole wheat flour is healthier.

^^My dad loved them as strawberry shortcake :)

my little sister did too... that's her on her last piece.
