These biscuits were an accident. I was fooling around and thought I would make some cookies that were healthy. I threw some ingredients in a bowl, rolled out the dough and was hoping for a nice fluffy cookie. Instead I got this delightful surprise!
They are:
- Great with some jam.
- Delicious smeared with peanut butter.
- Delectable eaten beside some scrambled tofu.
- So good that my son begged me to serve them with his breakfast & lunch the day after I made them.
The serving styles are really endless and they are incredibly easy to make. I enjoyed them so much that I am contemplating some kind of holiday brunch event as I feel these should be a featured side. I almost forgot the best part, they are healthy! Whole wheat, oil free and still tasty, you really can’t ask for more.
Accidental Breakfast Biscuits:

- 6 c whole wheat pastry flour

- Roll out dough to about an inch in thickness and cut out desired shape.

Extra Information:
- I think these would also be delicious with a pinch of cinnamon added to the mix.
- They took exactly 22 minutes in my oven.
- The recipe made 24 huge biscuits. I think it would make around 36-48 regular size ones {depending on the biscuit cutter used}.
