Three-Grain Biscuits

Submitted by P48422

"These biscuits are very different than my buttermilk biscuits, but they are truly delicious and offer a "heartier" flavor and texture, while still being light and buttery. They go really well with roasted meats, or heartier stews. They make me think of a very quick dinner roll."

These are a nice change from regular biscuits (like a cornmeal biscuit). I used plain yogurt in place of sour cream. My dough (whipped up in food processor) was very sticky but baked up wonderfully. These stayed fresh and non-crumbly, too. Thanks P4 for another great recipe. Roxygirl
