Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure your baking powder is fresh and active. Old baking powder can result in flat, dense biscuits.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the biscuits tough.
  • Drop the dough onto the baking sheet from a height of about 2 inches. This will help the biscuits to rise and be light and fluffy.
  • Bake the biscuits at a high temperature (450°F) for a short amount of time (10-12 minutes). This will help the biscuits to rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm with butter, honey, or jam.

Conclusion:

Whole wheat drop biscuits are a quick, easy, and delicious breakfast or snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover whole wheat flour. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these delicious biscuits in no time. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying treat, give whole wheat drop biscuits a try!
