Recipe - Blueberry Oatmeal Drop Biscuits

1 cup Unbleached flour
One half cup Whole wheat flour
One half cup Rolled oats (NOT instant)
1/3 cup Oat bran
1 teaspoon Baking powder
One half teaspoon Baking soda
Three fourths teaspoon Salt
One half teaspoon Ground cinnamon
One fourth cup Cold unsalted butter, cut in
1/4inch pieces
One fourth cup Granulated OR firmly packed
light brown sugar
1 lg Egg
One half cup Milk
One fourth cup Plain yogurt
1 cup Fresh blueberries

Preheat the oven to 400F. Lightly oil a large baking sheet.

In a large bowl, combine the flours, oats, oat bran, baking powder, baking
soda, salt, and cinnamon. Add the butter and cut it in with a pastry
blender until it is broken into very small pieces. Stir in the sugar.

In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg, milk, and yogurt together. Make a
well in the center of the dry ingredients; pour in the liquid ingredients
and stir lightly. When there are only a few traces of the dry ingredients
visible, fold in the blueberries.

Using about One fourth cup of the batter for each biscuit, drop evenly spaced
mounds onto the prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 20 minutes, turning the baking sheet midway through so they brown
evenly. Serve warm.

These biscuits look and taste like oversize blueberry oatmeal cookies.

Makes 12 biscuits.
