Oatmeal biscuits

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1-1/4 cups quick-cooking oats

Method:

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in oats and milk just until moistened.
2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out to 3/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm. Yield: 15 biscuits.
