Garlic Yeast Biscuits

The garlic in this recipe will help to repel fleas. The brewer's yeast is high in B vitamins and fleas don't like the taste.

1-3/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup brewer's yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, minced small
3 tablespoons olive oil (olive provides essential fatty acids)
1 cup vegetable stock

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease baking sheets.

In a medium bowl, combine the first four ingredients. In a large bowl, mix the garlic and oil. Then begin to add the flour mixture alternating with the broth/stock. Beat the dough until it is well mixed and shape into a ball.

On lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle. Use a cookie cutter of your choice and place the biscuits on the greased baking sheets. Bake 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned. Turn off the heat and allow the biscuits to dry in the oven for several hours or overnight.

Store them in the refrigerator or freezer. Makes about 2 dozen biscuits.
