Whole Wheat Biscuits

This is my go-to bread when I forget to plan ahead for soups or pastas.

Ingredients:
2 c. whole-wheat flour
3 1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
3 T. white sugar
3/4 c. buttermlik
1/2 c. butter
1 egg
1/4 t. cream of tartar.

Directions:

Sift together dry ingredients.  Cut in the butter.  Beat the egg into the milk and then add to dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.  At this point you can either drop on a cookie sheet, or knead until smooth, pat into a rectangle and cut with a biscuit-cutter.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
