I looked at our weekly menu plan last night, and saw that my husband had written down "cheesy biscuits" as that evening's side dish. What a perfect opportunity for me to bust out my grain mill.
I love the taste of freshly ground sprouted wheat!
And I also love the taste of this biscuit recipe. Who doesn't love buttery, cheesy, garlic-y goodness? We certainly do, and that's why this recipe is a family favorite.
Ingredients:
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter
1 tablespoon honey
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove garlic, pressed
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. Add the stick of butter. Cut it into chunks to make blending easier. Using a pastry blender or two butter knives, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Drizzle the honey over the mixture and blend in with pastry blender.
4. Add the milk and shredded cheese, and stir to combine until a soft dough forms.
5. Drop the dough by 12 spoonfuls onto an un-greased baking sheet (or a parchment paper-lined baking sheet), spaced 2" apart.
6. Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 minutes, or until biscuits begin to brown. Meanwhile, melt the 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in garlic.
7. Brush garlic butter onto finished biscuits. Serve immediately.
