Biscuits Whole Wheat
From Linda's Kitchen
Yield: 10 Servings
3 Cups Flour |
1 1/2 Cups Milk |
1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour |
1 Tablespoon Honey Or Sugar |
2 Tablespoons Baking Powder |
1 Tablespoon Honey |
2 Teaspoons Salt |
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil |
1 Cup Butter, Frozen |
|
Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Whisk the two flours, baking powder and salt together evenly distributing the finer powders amongst the coarser ones. Thoroughly grate the frozen butter through the largest holes of a standard box grater straight into the dry ingredients. Toss the works gently with your fingers until the butter shards are spread evenly throughout the flour, a far easier process than laboriously "cutting" in the fat. Pour the milk into the flour mixture and stir with the handle of a wooden spoon forming a dough mass. Knead the works gently a few times with your hands, folding it over and absorbing flour until all the ingredients come together. If necessary add a few spoonfuls more milk to help gather up any stray flour. Pat or roll the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface forming a thick even disc roughly 1" thick then cut into large pie shaped wedges. Position the biscuits on a baking tray then whisk together the honey and oil and brush their tops. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown and delicious, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve hot with honey or your favourite spread.
