Whole Wheat Yeast Biscuits

• 1 tablespoon yeast
• 2 tablespoons sugar (I used Xylitol, a natural sugar replacement)
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 cup bread flour
• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (Bob's Red Mill)
• 1/2 cup soy flour (Bob's Red Mill)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1 cup buttermilk

1. Dissolve yeast in water and sugar set aside.
2. Mix dry ingredients in order given; cut in shortening until the size of small Lima beans. Or use a Stand mixer with a pastry blade.
3. Stir in buttermilk and yeast mixture.
4. Cover bowl with towel and let sit until ready to use. (At least 2 hours, but it is fine if it sits for a couple hours.) Dough will be very sticky.
5. Scrape out onto well floured board.
6. Flip over and knead lightly (4-6 times).
7. Roll out and cut with biscuit cutter.
8. Place on greased pan and let raise slightly (10-30 minutes).
9. Bake at 400 F until light brown, 10-12 minutes.
