Garlic and Sage Biscuits

 

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1/4 cup whole-wheat flour

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon dried sage

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 or 2 cloves garlic chopped finely

3 tablespoons  butter

3/4 cup & 2 tablespoons of fat-free or regular buttermilk

 

Coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray and set aside. In a

large bowl stir together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat

flour, sugar, sage, baking powder, baking soda, salt and

garlic. Add the butter.

Using a pastry blender cut the butter into the flour mixture

until coarse crumbs form. Add the buttermilk and stir to

form a soft dough.

Place the dough on a floured surface and gently knead to

form a ball. Roll out the dough until it is about 3/4 inch

thick.

Cut into 12 round circles and place on the prepared baking

sheet.

Bake at 400 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes or until the

biscuits are golden brown.
