A lightened up version of a breakfast favorite. You can make it even more points-friendly by substituting whole wheat flour for part of the AP Flour.
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening, cold
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/4 cup half & half light cream
flour, for dusting
Directions:
1. Combine dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl with a whisk.
2. Mix in shortening with your fingers until it resembles a coarse crumb (or use a food processor).
3. Stir in yogurt and half and half until it just comes together, do not over mix.
4. Lay out a sheet of wax paper, parchment paper or freezer paper and dust with flour.
5. Dump out dough and coat your hands with flour. Pat out until its about 1 thick.
6. Using the paper, fold over the dough and pat out, repeating about 4 times.
7. Pat out dough to about 3/4 and cut with a 2 ring cutter.
8. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 14-16 minutes.
