butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

Coconut oil offers a dairy-free option with similar fat content.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: bread flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients, while bread flour is often less expensive.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is a dairy-free alternative; water can reduce costs.

baking powder

🥗Healthier: baking soda + vinegar

💰Cheaper: self-rising flour

Self-rising flour combines flour and leavening agents for convenience.

Start by adding 1 cup of flour to a bowl.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of sugar to the flour.

If desired, add a little cinnamon for flavor.

Gradually mix in about 1/2 cup of water until you achieve a dough-like consistency, adjusting with more flour if necessary.

Once the dough is ready, shape it into a disc about 1/2 inch thick.

Heat Crisco in a frying pan until melted and hot.

Place the dough disc in the pan and cook until golden brown on one side.

Flip the dough and cook until the other side is also golden brown.

Remove from the frying pan and serve with butter, or dip into soup or stew.
