These biscuits are the perfect accompaniment

to a bowl of soup on a cool winter day.

The original recipe is from the Pillsbury Complete Book of Baking.

3/4 cup cornmeal

1/4 cup sugar

3 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. basil leaves

1 tsp. parsley flakes

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/3 cup milk

1 egg

 

Heat oven to 400F.

In medium bowl, combine

flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, basil, parsley & salt; blend well.

Using pastry blender or fork,

cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in carrots.  Add milk and egg,

stirring just until moistened.

To form each biscuit,

drop 1/4 cup of dough unto ungreased cookie sheet.

 

Bake at 400F for 12 to 14 minutes
