Rani's Biscuits



Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Whisk together to aerate:
1 cup plain protein powder (I use MLO Hi-Protein brand)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Cut in until dispersed and about the texture of corn meal:
3 tablespoons butter
Add in:
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons cream
2-4 tablespoons water (will vary according to the brand of protein powder you use and the humidity)

Stir with a light touch until the dough forms a ball.
About 30 seconds should do it.
Lightly "flour" or counter or pastry board with protein powder.
Pat the dough out to about a 1/2" thickness (for shortcake) or 1/4-1/3" thickness for biscuits.
Cut out with a glass or biscuit cutter.
Bake on a greased cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes, or deep fat fry and sprinkle with Splenda or Brown Sugar Twin.
24 grams carbohydrates for the entire batch.
