Lynn's Buttermilk Cornmeal Biscuits

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 c yellow cornmeal
2 tesp sugar
2 tesp baking powder
1/2 tesp baking soda
1/2 tesp salt
1/4 c butter, cut into small pieces and chilled
3/4 c plus 2 tablespoons nonfat buttermilk
vegetable cooking spray
1 egg white, lightly beaten

 Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and soda in a large bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough 5 or 6 times. Roll dough to 1/2" thickness; cut with a 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Brush tops with egg white. Bake at 450°F for 12 minutes or until golden.

Better indeed is knowledge than mechanical practice. Better than knowledge is meditation. But better still is surrender of attachment to results, because there follows immediate peace.

You must know defeat before you can appreciate victory.
