Makes 12 biscuits at
110 calories each

1 c. whole-wheat flour

1 c. all-purpose flour

4 t. baking powder

1/2 t. low-calorie powdered sweetener blend for baking

3/4 t. salt

1/4 c. butter

1 c. low-fat milk

Combine flours, baking powder, sweetener and salt; mix well. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8 to 10 times. Roll out to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2" round biscuit cutter. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Serve warm.

Shh...here’s the secret to flaky homemade biscuits! Don’t overmix or overwork the dough...just stir to mix and roll or pat out gently.
