Whole Wheat Yeast Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients

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

Preparation

Dissolve yeast in water and sugar set aside.
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.
Stir in buttermilk and yeast mixture.
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.
Scrape out onto well floured board.
Flip over and knead lightly (4-6 times).
Roll out and cut with biscuit cutter.
Place on greased pan and let raise slightly (10-30 minutes).
Bake at 400 F until light brown, 10-12 minutes.
