WHOLE-GRAIN BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk together both flours, the baking powder, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Work in the butter using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles small peas.
• Add the milk and stir until just incorporated. Gently knead into a ball, and then pat into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into twenty-four 1 1/2-inch squares and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each biscuit. Sprinkle an additional 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper on top.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet and serve warm.

WHOLE-WHEAT CHEESE BISCUITS

Steps:

Cut in 6 tablespoons diced cold butter, then half of a 5.2-ounce package garlic-and-herb cheese until pea-size pieces form. Stir in 2/3 cup half-and-half with a fork. Pat into a 4-by-8-inch rectangle; cut into 8 squares. Bake at 450 degrees F until lightly browned, 15 to 17 minutes.
