Buttermilk Biscuits
2 c HODGSON MILL OAT BRAN HOT CEREAL
3 tsp baking powder
2 tsp granulated sugar
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 c peanut oil
1/3 c buttermilk
In a food processor fitted with steel blades or in a blender, mill the oat bran hot cereal until fine and flour like, about 2 minutes. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, stir together 1 3/4 cups oat bran hot cereal with baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar and salt. With pastry blender, cut in peanut oil until mixture resembles coarse granules. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour all buttermilk in at one time. Stir until dough clings together.
Place on a surface which has been sprinkled with the remaining 1/4 cup oat bran and knead gently for 1 minute. Pat to 3/4-inch uniform thickness. Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter which is well coated with flour.
Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
