I LOVE biscuits. I am a southern girl for sure and there are few things more southern than a biscuit. If you are looking for a light and easy biscuit recipe, I think you will love this one. This recipe is a healthier version that is low in fat with no saturated fat. It is also low in sodium and sugar. These light and fluffy yeast biscuits are simple to prepare and take only 10 minutes to bake. This recipe makes 4 dozen 2-inch biscuits. You can mix by hand but a mixer makes it even easier. These are good with eggs or a little honey. Try them and let us know how you like yours.

Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo
News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Many thanks
Camilla, thanks for the comment. I don’t have any tips for getting listed on Yahoo News as I have not intentionally tried to rank there. A good search engine tool makes a big difference. I use Squirrly. Hope that helps. Thanks for visiting.
