Ingredients

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
• 1 cup buttermilk, cold
• 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, garlic powder, and dried thyme until evenly combined.

Step 3

Add the chilled, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the cold buttermilk. Add the honey, if using. Stir gently with a fork or wooden spoon until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently 2-3 times to bring it together. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick.

Step 6

Use a round biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps, re-pat the dough, and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on the tops and bottoms.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm with butter, jam, or alongside your favorite meal.
