These homemade biscuits taste best about two minutes after they come out of the oven. They are delicious, when paired with almost any gravy or with fried eggs at breakfast! Perfect with butter, honey, or homemade jelly!

I’ve made biscuits similar to these successfully with sifted, whole wheat flour since I don’t eat white flour. Soy milk and almond milk also work, as does coconut oil or canola oil (all organic). Nothing better than peanut butter on a homemade biscuit!
