Ingredients

  • 4 cups self-rising flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal*

  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead 2 to 3 times.
  • Pat or roll dough to a 1/2-inch thickness, and cut with a 2-inch round cutter. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Reroll remaining dough, and proceed as directed. Brush tops with milk.
