Whole Wheat Biscuits
SUBMITTED BY:
Edna Hoffman
"I'VE HAD this recipe in my file for a long time. I love cooking and baking and am always creating something new by experimenting with recipes. I thought the substitution of whole wheat flour gave these biscuits a little different taste. -Edna Hoffman, Hebron, Indiana"

This recipe makes a very moist and soft biscuit. It was a big hit with my family, and they are always asking me to make it. I do recommend doubling the recipe, as a single batch does not make many (double batch yields approximately 5-6 biscuits). I also found that you need to add more buttermilk than what the recipe calls for. Give it a try!

What an easy recipe! This biscuit has a wonderful taste. I used my food processor (with a dough attachment) to combine my dry ingredients, butter and milk. Just pulsed until moistened. I also substituted Splenda for the sugar. The inside was light & fluffy just as the title implies. A great way to add more whole grain to your diet.

I have been making wholewheat biscuits for years. Wholewheat flours differ hence you have to judge the amount of buttermilk. This is a good basic recipe, but I would use less sugar.

Man these were great for what I used them for. I used the dough to wrap nitrate free hotdogs in for the kids...I really liked using the whole wheat and all purpose together. They came out slightly sweet so if you don't want that I would leave out the sugar. But they made great piggys in blankets! kids LOVED them and so did I!

Great recipe! I followed it exactly except I used unbleached bread flour instead of the regular all purpose.

I added about 2-3 Tbps of low-fat buttermilk to the mix because I found it a bit to dry while trying to mix it. I also cut the white flour in half, adding more whole-wheat flour. The result was great moist biscuits! very good recipe!

These were great biscuits. I made this to serve 10 (I'll do 12 next time for easier measuring). I used less sugar and not really as much butter as it called for. Even then, I think all that butter made them too crumbly for normal biscuits. But they were GREAT with Sawmill Gravy on top!

hate to be the person who just didn't like these but we just didn't like these...I made these exactly as the recipe stated except that I too had to double the recipe to feed 8 people, however I found the dough to be too dry it was hard to get it to stick together, the biscuits didn't rise they were flat...I did like the wheat taste so I will try some of the other wheat biscuit recipes found on this site but this one just won't be staying in our recipe book
