Cooking Time12 min
Ingredients
- 2 cup whole wheat pastry flour, or white whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon solid butter substitute suitable for baking
- 1/4 cup skim milk
Instructions
- Thoroughly combine wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the butter substitute into the dry mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal. This is easiest to do when the solid butter substitute is cold.
- Add milk evenly over flour mixture, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened.

- Place biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees F for 12 minutes, or until lightly browned.
