  5. Add the flour mixture and mix gently with a wooden spoon. (Don’t use a mixer).
  6. Transfer this mixture into a zip pouch and make a small cut on one corner of the pouch.
  7. Drip the batter onto the baking sheet by applying small pressure to make small drops leaving space in between the drops.
  8. Bake for 12 to 15 mins: or till it starts to brown lightly around the edges.
  9. Keep the Egg Biscuits in an airtight container when cooled.

Note:-
After the cooking time the Biscuits will be slightly soft to touch but will harden up within minutes.
The texture of these cookies should be very light and crispy.
