The only Biscuits Recipe you’ll need!! Whole Wheat
This Whole Wheat Biscuits Recipe will raise your bar so much higher now, and it’s so worth it!!
Originally, this was considered a big batch, but if you’re going to make the mess, it really doesn’t take that much extra time to do this big batch. So let’s jump into the recipe.
Note: The recipe calls for Half and Half or Buttermilk. If you don’t have any, you can use 3 C of milk and add 3 TBSP of vinegar to it. Mix it and let it sit for a bit; that’d be the liquid you’ll use for the recipe.
It yields 40 biscuits
Ingredients:
3 C Half and Half or Buttermilk
8 C of Whole Wheat Flour
4 tsp Salt
8 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
2 C Butter, cold. cut in cubes
Directions:
• Grab a BIG bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, mix well.
• Get the butter out of the fridge, and cut it in cubes. Add it to the flour mix, and with a pastry knife take the time to incorporate the butter into the flour (you want some pieces of butter in there).
• Make a well in the flour and add the buttermilk, and mix. You want to achieve a moist dough, that if you press it with your hands you can form a ball. If you can’t, you might need to add a bit more of buttermilk. You want to add as little as you can, you want it crumbly.
• Time to roll it out and laminate it! You can do it all at once or divide the dough in two pieces.
Roll it into a rectangle, and fold both ends to the center (like if you’re folding a letter). Turn it 90 degrees and repeat for 3 times. On the last time, you’ll roll it out to the desired shape and thickness. I recommend 1” thick dough.
• Start cutting! Use a circled cutter, and when using the scraps, you want to use as little flour as possible.
To bake: place them in a baking sheet and bake for 12 mins at 425 degrees.
To freeze: place them in a baking sheet and freeze overnight. Gather them into a freezer ziplock bag. Cook as directed, straight from the freezer.
Done!
I hope you enjoyed making these biscuits and that they taste delicious! It looks like a lot but I like giving you all the tips and tricks I know.
Love,
