Sprouted Spelt Biscuits

← breads
Makes 8 biscuits
Ingredients
2-1/4 cups sprouted spelt flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
6 tablespoons butter, cold (or solid coconut oil)
3/4 cup raw whole milk OR coconut milk, or nut milk (or even pure water)
1 tablespoon raw apple cider vinegar or lemon juice

Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt.

Add the butter or coconut oil, then cut it into the flour using a pastry cutter or a fork, until the pieces of oil are the size of peas or smaller. Add the milk (or water) and vinegar mixture.

Mix lightly with a wooden spoon to barely combine the ingredients. Don't overmix!

Transfer the dough to a clean, floured surface and roll into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.

Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut into 2-inch squares.

Transfer squares to an oiled cookie sheet, leaving space between. Put sheet in oven.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to cooling rack.

Notes
Mix the vinegar and milk together about 5 to 10 minutes beforehand to create "buttermilk".
If you don't have sprouted spelt flour, use whole wheat pastry flour (but use 2-1/2 cups) or unsprouted spelt flour.
