Savory Flax Biscuits
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tbsp. brown sugar
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ cup shortening
- ¼ cup ground flaxseed
- 1 cup grated carrot

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour,
sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles
coarse crumbs. Stir in flax, carrot and seasoning. Combine egg and milk;
add to the flour mixture all at once. Stir until dough forms a ball. Turn
out onto a lightly flouted surface. Knead gently 20 times. Roll dough to a
