Time 35m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/4 cups reduced-fat (2-percent) milk
3 tablespoons honey, plus more for serving
1 large egg white

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together the flours, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and work into the flour using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
Whisk together the milk, honey and egg white in a small bowl. Add to the dry mixture and stir with a fork until just incorporated.
Drop 12 mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet.
Serve warm with honey on the side.
