• 2 cups unbleached white flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, diced

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425°F.

3. 3

   Using your fingers, rub cubes of cold butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4. 4

   Add buttermilk and stir until moistened, then knead a few times, just enough to make the dough come together.

   Drop about 1/4 cup dough onto parchment paper and flatten slightly, or you may choose to roll about half inch thick and cut them, placing them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

6. 6

   Bake for about 12 minutes, or until tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
