Angel Biscuits Recipes

Light, low-fat biscuits

Trade shortening for oil and reduce the amount to cut the fat by half!! Very light and flavorful. Great for strawberry shortcake. You can also substitute the sugar with Splenda.

By trading shortening for oil and reducing the amount I cut the fat by half! Very light and tasty. Try splenda instead of sugar if you like.

My children love these lighter than usual buscuits but I have gone to making things 100% whole wheat which makes them too heavy for them. I have taken the recipe and made it healthier as a compromise for my children.

ADD YEAST TO LUKE WARM WATER LET DISSOLVE.
MIX DRY INGREDIENTS. CUT IN YOGART. ADD WARM SKIM MILK TO YEAST. MIX IN DRY INGREDIENTS. COVER AND CHILL FOR ONE HOUR. ROLL OUT ON FLOURED SURFACE. CUT. PLACE ON PAM SPRAYED BAKING SHEET. COVER LET RISE ONE HOUR. BAKE 450 10 TO 12 MINUTES.

These are great tasting and light biscuits - weight watchers friendly. Found the recipe online and make them whenever I need a biscuit fix; my husband enjoys them as well. They are only 1.5 points on the WW program!

We were having company for dinner, and I could not find 100% whole wheat dinner rolls, so decided to try making Angel Biscuits with whole wheat flour instead of white flour. I cut some fresh rosemary, washed & chopped it, and put it in melted butter with a little garlic and brushed the tops of the biscuits before baking.....they were yummy. I had enough dough left over to make 6 biscuits, so in the morning, I mixed a couple of tablespoons of splenda with cinnamon to taste and rolled the biscuits in the mixture before baking them (should spray the baking sheet with cooking spray when you do this), and they were a real treat for breakfast! These are not as light as the original angel biscuits, but were really good and we liked them as well, if not better!

An amazing cross between a biscuit and a roll, with just a hint of sweetness.
