Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• In the bowl of a food processor or regular bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients (if using honey, combine it with the liquid ingredients). Pulse (or mix) to combine.
• Cut up the butter into eight pieces and add to the dry ingredients. Pulse (or use a pastry blender) until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with a few pea-sized pieces of butter remaining. If using a processor, transfer to a medium bowl.
• Combine the egg and buttermilk (and honey, if using) in a glass measure; add to the dry ingredients all at once. Stir with a wooden spoon just until mixture starts to come together (it will not be completely mixed). Don't over mix.
• Turn out onto a floured surface and knead 10 - 15 times until dough holds together, folding a couple of times at the end like a letter. Pat or roll into a 1 to 1-1/4 inch rectangle. Cut with a biscuit cutter or knife into about a dozen biscuits depending on the size.
• Place on a lined or greased cookie sheet, and brush the tops with milk, if desired, for a shiny, browned top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a stand mixer with paddle attachment or a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well with a whisk or fork.
• Cut the butter into little small pieces and sprinkle over the flour mixture.
• Mix the flour and butter together until the butter resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add the milk and mix together just until combined, being careful not to overmix. Knead the dough with your hands 8 to 10 times, then turn the dough out onto a floured counter or cutting board.
• Pat the dough out flat with your hands until it's about 1/2 inch thick. If the dough sticks to your fingers, sprinkle a little flour on the top and bottom. If it's too dry (not holding together), add a splash or two of milk or water.
• Using a cookie/biscuit cutter or upside-down drinking glass, cut out biscuit rounds. [i](I used a 2 5/8 inch cutter.)[/i] Gently press together the remaining dough and continue to cut biscuits, making sure not to handle the dough too much. [i](I yielded 11 biscuits. So you may have one leftover to munch on!)[/i]
• Place the biscuits on an parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until lightly browned. [i](If using a bigger biscuit cutter, you will need to bake for longer.)[/i]

THE BEST WHOLE WHEAT BISCUITS

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl combine the dry ingredients. Mix well with whisk or fork.
• Cut the ½ stick butter into little pea sized pieces and then mix the pieces into the flour mixture.
• Using a fork or pastry blender, try to mash the butter pieces as you mix it together with the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. It is okay if the outcome just looks like the same pea sized pieces of butter covered with flour.
• Then pour in the milk and mix it all together. Knead the dough with your hands 8 to 10 times (for best results do not over-knead the dough) and then turn out onto a floured surface (like a counter or cutting board).
• Pat it out flat with your hands until the dough is a somewhat even ¾-inch thickness (sprinkle with a little flour if necessary).
• Turn a drinking glass upside down and cut out biscuit rounds. I have also used shaped cookie cutters (like a heart or star) if you have little ones helping you!
• Then place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet or in a cast iron skillet and bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy!
