  • Total 25 min
  • Servings 10

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
  • About 3/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 450°. Mix flours, cornmeal, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in oats. Stir in just enough milk so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
  • 2
    Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch round cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart for crusty sides, touching for soft sides. Brush with milk and sprinkle with oats if desired.
  • 3
    Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.

  • These tasty biscuits contain three different grains: cornmeal, whole wheat and oatmeal. Combining grains adds flavor, texture and fiber, plus variety, to your eating plan.
