Whole Wheat Bourbon Biscuits

5 from 10 votes

Baking Wholewheat bourbon at home was so much fun. The recipe is super simple, and doesn't require any egg. You will easily bake these at home. Refer to the video for an easy and quick understanding of the process.

I felt that warmth and prolonged excitement again with these bourbons, even when these were in the jar. Though these biscuits got over very soon. But my kids were clearly enlivened with these whole wheat bourbons.
