Introducing whole wheat and coconut flours into the outline of a traditional buttermilk biscuit really transforms the flavor without detracting from the crisp flakey texture of a good biscuit. Coconut flour absorbs moisture much more than other flours, so don’t be tempted to add more than called for or you could end up with dry biscuits!
Whisk 2/3 cup each all-purpose and whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup coconut flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt. Work in 6 tablespoons diced cold butter. Stir in 3/4 cup buttermilk and knead a few times. Pat until 1/2 inch thick on a floured surface, fold into thirds and pat into a 1-inch-thick rectangle; cut into 8 squares. Brush with buttermilk; sprinkle with salt and hemp hearts. Bake on a baking sheet at 425˚ F, 20 to 25 minutes.
