Ingredients:

  • 1 package dry yeast
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp warm water (105o to 115o)
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 2 cups plus 2 tbsp warm buttermilk (105o to 115o)

Directions:

  1. Dissolve yeast and 1/2 teaspoon sugar in warm water; let stand 5 minutes or until bubbly.
  2. Combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, wheat flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add yeast mixture and buttermilk, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in enough remaining all purpose flour to make a soft dough.
  3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 4 to 5 times or until dough is smooth and elastic. Let dough rest 10 minutes.
  4. Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness; cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter, and place on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 400° for 10 to 12 minutes.
