In a small mixing bowl, whisk together for 2 minutes:
2 c. Summers Sprouted Spelt Flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. Sucanat (if you want a liquid sweetner, add it with the yogurt)
1/2 tsp. salt (optional)
Cut in 1/3 c. frozen or ice-cold butter. You can use a pastry blade or
two knives or forks. You want the mix to be even, with tiny flakes
of butter covered with a coating of flour. This will make the
biscuits light and flaky. The bigger the balls of butter the bigger the
‘holes’ will be in the cooked biscuit, so get the size of the butter
flakes as even as possible.
Add and mix lightly:
7/8 c. yogurt (you can use any liquid)
Turn out onto a floured cutting board and knead for 1 minute.
Roll out or knead until the dough is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Cut the
dough with a pastry cutter (I like to use a canning jar ring). Arrange
the biscuits close together in a greased baking pan, cookie sheet or
pie pan.
Bake for 12-15 minutes at 400-450 degrees.
