  • Cook Time: 3 hours
  • Prep Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: 3 hours and 30 minutes
  • Servings: Approximately 80 biscuits

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 ripe pear
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 cup wheat germ
  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 cups additional whole wheat flour (approx.)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients:

    • Peel and core the ripe pear, then chop it into small pieces.
    • Mash the banana until smooth.
    • Measure out the wheat germ, oats, whole wheat flour, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients:

    • Using a mixer with a dough hook attachment, combine the eggs, chopped pear, mashed banana, wheat germ, and oats in the mixing bowl.
    • Beat the ingredients together until well mixed and evenly distributed.
  3. Incorporate the Dry Ingredients:

    • Gradually add the whole wheat flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, to the wet mixture.
    • Continue mixing until the dough starts to come together and form a “big ball.”
    • If the dough is too sticky, add more whole wheat flour, a spoonful at a time, until it reaches a stiff consistency that can be easily handled.
  4. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 300Β°F (150Β°C).
  5. Shape the Biscuits:

    • Roll the dough into small balls and place them on lined cookie sheets.
    • Flatten each ball slightly with your finger to form biscuit shapes.
  6. Bake the Biscuits:

    • Position one oven rack above the middle rack and another below it.
    • Place the cookie sheets on the oven racks and bake the biscuits for 1 hour.
  7. Flip and Continue Baking:

    • After the first hour, remove the biscuits from the oven and flip them over.
    • Return the cookie sheets to the oven, switching their positions on the racks.
    • Bake for an additional 30 minutes.
  8. Reduce Heat and Finish Baking:

    • Lower the oven temperature to 225Β°F (107Β°C).
    • Continue baking the biscuits for approximately 1 to 1 1/2 hours more, keeping a close eye on them.
    • To test for doneness, remove one biscuit, allow it to cool, and check if it’s hard like a milk bone.
  9. Cool and Store:

    • Once fully baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool completely on the cookie sheets.
    • Once cooled, transfer the biscuits to an airtight container for storage.
