Biscuits - With Whole Grain Flours

I use this recipe to make a drop biscuit. You could roll it out and cut to make layered biscuits if desired.

1 + 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup spelt flour

2 Tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 + 1/2 tsp kosher salt

2 Tbsp butter (cold)

1 + 1/4 cup whole buttermilk

1/4 cup honey

Preheat oven to 425.

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Use a cheese grater (large holes) to grate the cold butter into the flours, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping. Stir until mixture resembles coarse meal, with bits of butter pea-sized (required minimal stirring - do not overmix).

Add buttermilk and honey. Stir until all bits of dry flour are combined. Use ice cream scoop (disher) to measure out biscuits onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 12-14 minutes, or until the tops are golden. (In my oven, I move the rack up to the upper third of the oven to bake these).
