Cheddar Cheese Biscuits With Chives

• 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (unbleached white, or a combo of the two)
• 12 teaspoon salt
• 2 12 teaspoons baking powder
• 12 teaspoon baking soda
• 13 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 -3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
• 4 tablespoons cold butter
• 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon honey or 1 teaspoon other artificial sweetener

1. Preheat oven to 450˚.
2. Sift flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda into a medium-sized bowl.
3. Add cheese and chives.
4. Toss to evenly distribute.
5. Cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives.
6. Mixture should resemble coarse meal.
7. Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and pour in the buttermilk.
8. Stir quickly and lightly with a fork until mixture just comes together, about 1/2 minute.
9. Turn dough out onto a flat surface and very lightly knead until dough comes together (again, about 1/2 minute).
10. If you need to add a sprinkling of flour to help with kneading, that's fine.
11. Pat dough out to a thickness of approximately 3/4 inch.
12. Cut biscuits with a 2-inch biscuit cutter or sharp knife.
13. Place on a lightly oiled cookie sheet.
14. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
