--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      cup           canned pumpkin -- (not pie
                        filling)
     2/3  cup           skim milk or other form of
                        liquid
   1 1/2  cups          flour -- (half white, half
                        -- ww)
   2      tablespoons   wheat germ
   2      tablespoons   wheat bran
   4      teaspoons     baking powder
   1      clove         garlic -- minced
   1      pinch         nutmeg
   1      teaspoon      salt -- (optional)

Preparation:

Combine wet, combine dry, mix wet into dry, drop by generous spoonfuls onto baking sheet squirted with PAM. Bake 20-30 minutes at 450 degrees. The garlic doesn't really give these a pronounced garlic flavor--it just eliminates some of the cloying sweetness of the pumpkin. When these first come out of the oven they are very crisp on the outside and dense and moist on the inside--sort of like little mini-spoonbreads. After they cook the texture becomes more uniform and more like the standard biscuit we all know and lov
