Recipe: Lemon Sugar Biscuits (using yogurt)

LEMON SUGAR BISCUITS

2 cup all purpose flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. ground cardamom (optional)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp. lemon peel, grated
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 cup plain yogurt
2 tsp. white granulated sugar (for biscuit tops)

Preheat over to 375 degrees F.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together first 5 dry ingredients. Cut butter into the dry ingredients, until mixture resembles cornmeal in texture. Add lemon peel, lemon juice and yogurt. Mix well with a fork.

Place dough on a floured board. Knead until smooth and pat out 1/2-inch thick. Cut round biscuits using a 3-inch cutter. Sprinkle tops with sugar. Place on a greased cookie sheet.

Bake for 10-15 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Serve hot.
