Corn Sandwich Biscuits

If only all my mess ups turned out this good! I was trying for a gluten free corn wrap. I got these instead. I must say I like these better!

Corn Sandwich Biscuits

Ingredients:

½ cup Fine Corn Meal
½ cup Amaranth Flour
½ cup Tapioca Starch
½ cup Corn Starch
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Salt
½ cup Vegetable Shortening
¾ cup Water, (approximately)
1 Egg


Procedure:

1. Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.

2. Using a pastry cutter, cut vegetable shortening into dry ingredients until thoroughly mixed.

3. Slowly add water until dough is soft and slightly sticky. Knead with a fork or hands until dough is smooth.

4. Add egg. Mix with fork until fully mixed. Dough will be very sticky and thick.

5. Spoon approximately 1/3 cup at a time into a dry non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Use your turner to form into a circle about the size of a regular hamburger bun.

6. Cook first side until golden brown. Flip biscuit and brown the other side. Should take about 3 to 5 minutes per side.

7. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 3 to 5 minutes.

8. Using butter knife, slice biscuits in half similar to an English muffin.

9. Place your favorite sandwich ingredients on the bottom half and top with the top half.

10. Enjoy!
