Recipe - Baking-Powder Biscuits

1 cup Allpurpose flour
One half cup Apple fiber
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
One fourth teaspoon Salt
One half cup Rice bran
Three fourths cup Evaporated skim milk

From the 8 Week Cholesterol Cure Cookbook. Tastes best right out of the
oven.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking
powder, rice bran, apple fiber, and salt. Or you could do this in a food
processor. Add milk all at once and stir until ingredients are just
combined; if you are doing this in a food processor, pulse the machine a
few times just until dough is combined. If the dough seems a little dry,
sprinkle on a tablespoon of water and work it in.

With lightly floured hands, knead the dough for 30 seconds. Then pat and
push it out until it is One half inch thick. With a 1 One half inch biscuit cutter,
cut the dough into about 18 rounds. Set rounds on an ungreased baking
sheet. Bake for 16 minutes or until cooked through.

VARIATIONS: To make herbed bisuits, add 1 tsp dried herbs of your choice
to the dry ingredients, before adding the milk.

To make buttermilk bisbuits, use 1% fat buttermilk instead of the
evaporated milk and substitute 2 tsp baking powder, mixed with One half tsp
baking soda, for the baking powder.

To make oatbran biscuits, substitute 1 cup oat bran for the rice bran and
apple fiber.
