Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Reviews
THE fluffiest most delicious whole wheat biscuits ever!
I liked this recipe. I doubled it and used the fat I had on hand, which was coconut oil. These were fluffy and the bottoms baked up crisp.
This is my go-to biscuit recipe! It is quick, easy, and easily goes with many different meals. I use all whole wheat flour, milled in my flour mill right before baking. Within 3 days of wheat being milled into flour, much of its nutrients are gone! Look into milling your own flour.
This recipe was super easy, my husband enjoys them with many dishes!
Made this with just whole wheat flour, and though I would call them fluffy, they turned out really well.
These tasted fine, but no way can you get 12 biscuits out of dough rolled out to 3/4 inch. I squeezed out 9 small biscuits.
Light and fluffy, these came out great.
Great recipe. Our convection oven was faster and the biscuits were lighter. I used only whole wheat flour. They were a hit and got devoured ravenously with soup.
I left off the sugar. I liked them very much! Next time I may try them with the sugar!
I made this using AP flour and pastry whole wheat flour. These were the lightest flakiest biscuits ever! My family couldn’t stop raving!!
These are really good. I had my doubts because I don’t have much luck with whole wheat flour. But we were delighted with the results. Very tasty and surprisingly light. These are going to be my go-to recipe for biscuits. Thanks for a great recipe. 1.5.19 just made these again only I used flour that was already a mix of whole wheat and AP flour and they turned out even fluffier than the last time. Some were actually nearly 2 inches tall and so yummy.
I followed the recipe exactly and they were good! They do taste best warm.
1) Never ever twist your cutter when cutting the biscuits 2) Amazing biscuits for biscuits and gravy. I didn’t have butter milk so I use plain yogurt as an substitute and it worked. Loved these biscuits
I made these and they are absolutely wonderful…very easy and quick to make and boy are they good! Will definitely make them again
Made these a 2nd time just to be sure and yep, taste like cardboard.
I used all whole wheat and shortening instead of butter. Added about a tbsp of honey. Surprising good! I would make again!
Kind of cool and dreary and I was craving some bread, so I made these. Only change I made was to use 1-1/2c whole wheat flour and 1/2c white flour and they were great! In spite of what others said about the dough being too sticky/wet, I used the entire cup of ‘buttermilk’ and my consistency was spot on. 2 thumbs up!
I used yogurt instead of buttermilk since that is what I had, with some milk to have enough liquid. It turned out really good and will make it again.
i Loved these! i made them a little healthier by using two cups of wholewheat flour. they alway turn out soooo light and fluffy! Delish!
Made these with all wheat flour , grated the butter into the dry mix and made buttermilk since I disnt have any at home. Tasted great.
These turned out great. I followed the recipe exactly except I made the buttermilk with milk and vinegar. I thought the dough seemed too moist and sticky to knead but it worked with enough flour. Will make these again.
