1 cup whole wheat flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |

1/3 cup brown sugar |
2/3 cup sour cream |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 cup half-and-half cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. in a mixing bowl. Cut in the butter with a knife or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the brown sugar.
3. Whisk together the sour cream, light cream, and vanilla extract in a small bowl, then stir into the flour mixture until just moistened.
