On a cold winter night serve these savory biscuits warm from the oven with a hearty soup

1 c. minus 2 T. all-purpose flour
2 T. whole-wheat flour
1 t. baking powder
¼ t. baking soda
¼ t. salt
1 t. dried dill
1/3 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese

3 T. butter
½ c. milk


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Measure 2 T. whole-wheat flour into a c. and fill with all-purpose flour. In large bowl, mix flours, baking soda, salt, dill and cheese.
