Canola oil spray
1 c. whole wheat flour, sifted
1/2 c. all-purpose flour, sifted
1/2 c. cornmeal
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda

1¼ c. fat-free buttermilk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray the interior of an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with the oil spray.
In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and fresh herbs, but save the sesame seeds for later.
In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, egg, honey and oil. Stir into flour mixture just until blended. Spoon batter into the baking pan. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.
Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool slightly on a rack. Turn out the bread and cool completely on a wire rack. Serve immediately or store wrapped in plastic wrap or foil.

SHORTCAKE BISCUITS
2 cups White Lily Self-Rising Flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup half and half
1 egg
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine flour and sugar. Cut butter or margarine in until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Whisk half and half and egg together until blended. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture to make a stiff dough. Turn dough onto a lightly floured board and knead gently 8 to 10 strokes. Roll or pat dough to 1/2- to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with 2 1/2 to 3-inch cutter. Place shortcakes 2 to 3 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Brush tops lightly with half and half. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
INDIAN FRY BREAD
Mix together:
2 cups flour
2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup powdered milk
(a small amount of shortening can be added)
Add enough warm water to form a soft dough, but not sticky. Cover with a cloth and allow to sit for about two hours. Shape into balls about 2 inches across and then flatten by patting with greased hands until a circle about 8 inches is formed. Have about a half inch of shortening heated in a large frying pan. Test the temperature of grease by dropping in a pinch of dough. If it browns quickly, the grease is ready. Fry the circle of dough on one side until light brown, then flip to brown the other side. The thinner the dough circle, the crisper the bread. I like it about the thickness of a slice of bread. This is very good served hot with jam, syrup or just powdered sugar.
