These fluffy whole wheat biscuits are a delightful addition to any meal, offering a wholesome and tasty option.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
Sift the dry ingredients together to ensure they are evenly mixed.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use cold butter straight from the fridge for the best texture.
Add the honey and gradually stir in the milk, mixing just until the dough comes together.
Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently roll it out to a 1/2-inch thickness.
Handle the dough gently to maintain its light texture.
Cut out biscuits using a 2 1/2-inch cutter and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
Press straight down with the cutter without twisting for even rising.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Check the biscuits a minute before the suggested time to avoid overbaking.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like butter or jam.
Enjoy them fresh out of the oven for the best taste.
