Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.75 cup Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut the chilled, diced butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, mix the peanut butter and honey until smooth.
Add the peanut butter mixture to the flour and butter mixture, stirring until just combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
Gradually add the milk, a little at a time, and gently mix until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Lightly flour a surface and turn the dough out. Knead gently 3-4 times to bring it together into a cohesive dough.
Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Gather any leftover dough scraps, knead them lightly, and use them to cut out additional biscuits as needed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
