My “ I had absolutely nothing in my kitchen “ Orange Biscuits




I really felt like baking today and when I went to check what ingredients I had in my kitchen to work with, I found out i had NOTHING and the things I did have where almost empty! (I could have gone to the supermarket, but let's face it, no one was going to make me change out of my Pjs and head over there)
Even after the scary discovery of an empty kitchen :( I was still committed to create something, even if i ended up with a yield of two servings. 
Here is exactly what I found:

      -       1 cup of Bisquick pancake mix (I’m telling you! I was desperate. School people are going to kill me)
  -       The last bit of a gallon of low fat milk
  -       A lonely orange
       -      Confectioners sugar (Not enough to tickle) , vanilla and cinnamon.

Every recipe I had in mind had butter, eggs or something else I didn’t have. So after making a few mathematical calculations in my head about quantities and proportions, I figured out I could make something I loveeeee: BISCUITS!! (no NO not like KFC, nicer!)

Here is a very easy recipe that can be ready in less than 15 minutes!! Hope you like it, I promise it's really good for an unexpected guest, breakfast, brunch, snack, anything!!!!

This recipe only makes 4 Biscuits, but can definitely be multiplied. They aren't sweet, they taste like your yummy biscuits only with a hint of sugar and orange.

Pre heat oven : 450 F

1 Cup Bisquick mix
¼ Cup + 1 Tablespoon of Low Fat Milk
1 ½ Tablespoon of Confectioners Sugar
A pinch of Cinnamon
I Teaspoon of Vanilla
2 Teaspoons of Orange Zest

Steps:
-       In a bowl, mix all the ingredients until it comes together into a sticky dough.


-       Cut the dough in four and place it on a baking sheet (no oil or butter needed)


-       Bake for 8 to 10 minutes at 450F or until a bit golden on top. Cool on a cooling rack or eat warm from the oven :) 



ALL DONE!!! So easy!!!

Just wanted to share something fun and easy with you today!! Hope you enjoy it :)



EAT AWAY!!
