strawberry biscuits

Two posts in one night! Can you tell I had the day off? ;)

So I did some more zine cookin'. I was intrigued by the recipe for Biscuits in the Krazy Katlady Cookbook #1 because they call for chopped, frozen fruit and sugar. But...but... wouldn't that make them scones? or funny shaped muffins? My southern-fried brain can't take that kind of confusion. But I do love biscuits, and I do love fruit, so here you go:

strawberry biscuits

If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times- I freaking hate using Egg Replacer in baked goods! I only use it when I'm following someone else's recipe because I get too scared to mess with substitutions, but damn does it always disappoint me. These would have been heavenly if made with soy yogurt in place of dry, powdery old Egg Replacer.
That being said, they aren't terrible. In fact, these are pretty sweet lil' biscuits. They just have the potential to be so much more wonderful. Next time I will stick to my fail-safe biscuit recipe, and just add fruit.

Dude. Why don't I have that cook book? Oh, right. I hate to cook.

Ha. You wouldn't spell "Krazy" and "Katlady" with K's, though. You may be a crazy catlady, but your not a krazy katlady.

... or something like that.

I meant "you're", not "your". Please don't hurt me, crazy spelling lady.

These look great. I don't use powdered egg replacer, so whenever a recipe calls for it I just sub the right amount of whatever I'm using at the time, and I don't ever have any problems. Don't be scared!
