Fluffy Beer Biscuits
Description: These easy beer biscuits are fluffy, delicious and made with 100% whole wheat flour. Check the recipe notes below for ingredient details and variations. Recipe yields 12 biscuits.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
- 1 ½ cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (optional)
- ¼ cup honey
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 12 ounces beer
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If necessary, lightly grease the cups of your muffin tin or line them with paper liners (my pan is non-stick, so I didn’t grease mine).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine both flours, the baking powder and salt. Stir to combine. Stir in the cheese, if using.
- In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine the honey and melted butter. Whisk to combine, to loosen up the honey. Set aside.
- Gently pour the beer and the honey-butter mixture into the flour mixture. Using a big spoon, stir just until combined. Divide the batter evenly between 12 muffin cups.
- Bake until the tops are golden brown, about 25 to 28 minutes. Let the muffins cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer to a cooling rack to continue cooling (or serve immediately).
