Fat Free, Low Cal Biscuits!

Health Nut 101's Note:

Let me start off by saying HALLELUJAH!! My parents are BIG biscuit eaters, and dinner every night is a battle for me to turn down the biscuits. I adapted this recipe from a traditional "mayo" biscuit, and it is yummy! They come out very fluffy and are not cursed with the nasty baking powder flavor that most healthy biscuits have. I hope to soon experiment with oat flour in this recipe!! This is by far one of my favorite healthified recipes!

Thank you SOOOOO much! I LOVE biscuits but, now that I'm dieting, I can't eat the full-flavor ones for a number of reasons. This recipe was perfect. Tasted like Bisquick drop biscuits. I used light mayo and 2% mill because that's what I had on hand but boy did they hit the spot! Thanks again for biscuits I can enjoy guitlessly.

These were pretty good for low cal biscuits. I followed it exactly and made 6 medium size biscuits. All gone so I'd say they were good.

These were so easy to make and no one knew they were low-fat. I will definitely keep this recipe handy, these win hand-over-fist over canned biscuits! Thanks for posting a keeper! Made for Fall 2009 PAC,
