Savor the wholesome goodness of these Three Grain Biscuits, a delightful fusion of all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, hearty rolled oats, and a touch of cornmeal for added texture. Perfectly flaky and rich with buttery flavor, these biscuits are lightly sweetened with a hint of honey and elevated by the subtle tang of buttermilk. Quick and easy to prepare in just 15 minutes of hands-on time, they bake to golden perfection in under 12 minutes, making them an ideal choice for breakfast, brunch, or as a comforting side dish. Serve warm with jam, honey, or a pat of butter to take these rustic, nutrient-packed biscuits to the next level.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until evenly combined.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes, then add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and honey until well combined.
Slowly pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture. Use a fork or wooden spoon to stir just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it 2-3 times to bring it together into a cohesive ball.
Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle. Use a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, reforming and patting out the dough as needed to cut additional biscuits.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite spreads or toppings.
