Ingrediënten

1 ⅔ cups (8 ⅓ oz/236 g) whole wheat flour

¾ cup (3 oz/85 g) powdered sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup (4 oz/115 g) butter (, cold and cubed)

¼ cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) whole milk (, at room temperature)

Instructies

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) Fan assist. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, powdered sugar, baking powder and salt.

Using your fingertips (or a pastry blender), rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the milk and work through to form a dough. (IF your dough seems dry add a little more milk)

Turn out on a floured surface and roll to form a smooth dough.

Roll the dough out to an ⅛-inch thick and cut into rounds, about 3-inches in diameter. You can keep rolling the scraps together to make additional biscuits.

Transfer the biscuits to your baking pan and, if desired, stamp and prick the biscuits with a skewer to create holes.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, until biscuits are lightly golden.

Allow to cool completely before enjoying. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
