Whole Wheat Sesame Biscuits

Yields: 12 biscuits

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons margarine or butter
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons milk

1. In small skillet, toast sesame seeds over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease large cookie sheet. In large bowl, mix flours, baking powder, salt, and 5 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds. With pastry blender or two knives used scissor-fashion, cut in margarine or butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk, stirring just until mixture forms soft dough that leaves side of bowl.

3. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 8 to 10 strokes to mix thoroughly. With floured rolling pin, roll dough 1/2 inch thick.

4. With floured 2 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits. Place biscuits, about 2 inches apart, on cookie sheet.

5. Press trimmings together; roll and cut as above. Brush tops of biscuits with remaining 1 tablespoon milk; sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon sesame seeds. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden.
