Recipe Notes

Gluten or wheat Free – replace the flour with gluten free flour or rice flour, (although I prefer half and half ) and make sure the oats are assured gluten free.

This biscuit mix is also good rolled in a little flour and cut out in to fun shapes, just cook them a little less.

Happy Halloween
