Whole Wheat Breakfast Biscuits

I wanted to try making the usual white breakfast biscuits a little bit heartier, flavorful and "healthier" so I tried making my usual recipe with 1/2 whole wheat flour. They came out great and smell delicious, so I wanted to share! These are good for breakfast with jam, eggs or the class American breakfast: biscuits & sausage gravy!
*Notes*
[Substitution for buttermilk]:
- Method 1: Mix 225 ml whole milk + 1 Tbsp lemon juice + 2 pinches salt. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Method 2: Mix 120 ml whole milk + 120 ml plain yoghurt

Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F
- 2
Mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt in a bowl.
- 3
Cut butter into little cubes and add to the flour. Use your hands or a pastry cutter to cut/crumble the butter into the flour until it forms pea size pieces.
- 4
Gradually pour in the buttermilk (or buttermilk substitute) and roughly mix in until the dough is just wet.
- 5
On a floured surface fold/knead the dough 4-6 times until it just comes together (you want to avoid over kneading to keep the best biscuity texture).
- 6
Press the dough out into a flat piece about 2 cm (3/4 in) thick (you can use a rolling pin too)
- 7
Dust a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter with flour and cut out 8-10 biscuits. (dust the cutter with flour each time). If you don't have a cutter, use a knife to cut round shapes (or even just square if you're feeling lazy :) Form any leftover dough into a biscuit with your hands.
- 8
Arrange the biscuits on a lined baking sheet.
- 9
Bake for 15-17 minutes until golden brown.
- 10
Brush with a little melted butter and enjoy!
