How to Make Perfect Whole Wheat Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix!
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat or roll the dough to about 1-inch thickness. Avoid overworking the dough.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out biscuits. Gently place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with butter, jam, or as part of a delicious breakfast sandwich!
