Enjoy these fluffy and flavorful whole wheat biscuits made with yogurt for a delightful twist on a classic recipe.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and position the rack in the center.
Preheating ensures even baking and helps achieve a golden crust.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Sifting the dry ingredients can help avoid lumps and ensure an even mix.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Work quickly to keep the butter cold, which helps create a flaky texture.
In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt and milk until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to prevent tough biscuits.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it 8-10 times. Roll out to 1/2-inch thickness.
Handle the dough gently to maintain its light texture.
Cut the dough into rounds using a biscuit cutter and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
Press the cutter straight down without twisting to ensure the biscuits rise evenly.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Check the biscuits a few minutes before the end of baking time to avoid overbaking.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving warm.
Serve with butter, jam, or honey for a delightful treat.
