Oatmeal Biscuits

Ingredients

• 1 cup rye or white flour
• 2 tablespoons fat
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• liquid (enough to make a soft dough)

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. In a bowl, mix the fat and sifted flour with baking powder and salt.

3. Add enough liquid to form a soft dough.

4. Turn the dough onto a floured board and roll it to about ½ inch thick.

5. Cut with a floured biscuit cutter.

6. Bake for about 15 minutes.
