Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 

2 tablespoons toasted wheat germ 

1 teaspoon coarse salt 

1/2 teaspoon baking powder 

4 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into pieces 

1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk 

Preparation

In a food processor pulse together all-purpose flour, toasted wheat germ, salt, and baking powder. Add cold, unsalted butter, and process until largest pieces are the size of small peas.

With machine running, add low-fat buttermilk until dough just holds together.

Pat into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 1 hour (or overnight).
