  14. ## **Step-by-Step Instructions**
  15. ### **Step 1: Preheat and Prepare**
  16. Preheat your oven to **425°F (220°C)**. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and reduce the need for extra grease.

  18. ### **Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients**
  19. In a large mixing bowl, combine **1 ½ cups whole wheat flour**, **1 cup all-purpose flour**, **1 tablespoon baking powder**, **½ teaspoon baking soda**, and **½ teaspoon salt**. Whisk thoroughly to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
  20. ---
  21. ### **Step 3: Incorporate Cold Butter**
  22. Cut **¼ cup cold unsalted butter** into small cubes. Add the butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. This step is crucial for achieving flaky, tender biscuits.

  24. ### **Step 4: Add Buttermilk**
  25. Pour **1 cup low-fat buttermilk** into the flour mixture. If desired, add **1 tablespoon honey** or a sugar substitute for a hint of sweetness. Gently stir until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
  26. ---
  27. ### **Step 5: Shape the Dough**
  28. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 2-3 times. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits. Avoid twisting the cutter, as this can seal the edges and prevent rising.

  30. ### **Step 6: Bake to Perfection**
  31. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between them. Bake in the preheated oven for **12-15 minutes**, or until the tops are golden brown.
  32. ---
  33. ### **Step 7: Serve and Enjoy**
  34. Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with a drizzle of honey, a dollop of low-calorie jam, or alongside your favorite healthy breakfast dishes.
