"Jo-Ann Garcia's answer to the regular biscuit! Light and tasty, you can add herbs to it to give it some more flair. I used these to top a gluten-free turkey pot pie! Very nice!"

Made for 2008 All New Zaar Cookbooks Tag. These did not meet up to my expectations. When I mixed them up, the batter was runny and not thick like you would expect biscuit dough to be. After a few minutes the batter did thicken up and I was able to scoop then onto a baking sheets. But, they spread all over the cookie sheet and I had one big biscuit that had to be cut apart. I do believe like the chef said, that these would make a great topping for a pot pie. Also, we thought the recipe was missing salt and the biscuits were a little bland. I might use these again as a topping for pot pie, but doubt that I would make them as biscuits.
