Hearty Honey Whole Wheat Biscuits that are crisp on the outside, tender on the inside and slightly sweet throughout!
I’m a big fan of biscuits! They’re easy to bake and oh so comforting to eat! I grew up eating them for breakfast with a dab of butter and a spread of jam or a big spoonful of sausage gravy. Mmmm! We also serve them alongside homestyle meals such as fried chicken, beef stew and meatloaf. Comfort food classics made even better with a biscuit by their side!
These Honey Whole Wheat Biscuits are our new fave as they’re making morning appearances quite often these days! I can have them ready in less than 30 minutes and everyone loves them!
They’re made healthier and heartier from the whole wheat flour, but still super tender with a nice fluff in every bite. A little butter goes a long way as they have the most amazing buttery texture to compliment the sweetness of the honey and the slight saltiness throughout. Biscuit perfection!
They keep well for a few days and are awesome when sliced and reheated under the broiler for a few minutes with a little butter & honey melting on top. Heavenly!
So go ahead and bake a pan for the fam! They’re bound to love ‘em!
So cravable and comforting! Enjoy!

- Biscuits:
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Glaze:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream, honey and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until just combined and then turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead with your hands until well combined.
- Pat the dough out onto the floured surface to about 1-inch thickness. Cut into circles with a round cutter and place on the prepared baking sheet. Gather remaining dough and repeat cutting into rounds until all dough has been used.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the other 2 tablespoons melted butter and 1 tablespoon honey. Brush onto biscuits. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown around the edges and on top.
- Serve with butter and more honey. To reheat the next day, slice them in half, spread a little butter on each half and place on a baking sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes or until perfectly toasted.
That looks delicious!!!!!!
