85 g whole wheat flour

85 g all purpose flour

½ tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp baking soda

¼ cup white sugar

Add your frozen butter to the dry mixture and use a pastry cutter or fork and knife to cut up the butter and combine it until butter pieces are about the size of a pea. Chop some sage and add that to the mixture as well.

2 tbsp sage, chopped

Toast about pecans and let them cool completely before adding to the mixture and tossing to combine.

1 ⅓ cups toasted pecans

Add buttermilk and fold gently to combine.

½ cup buttermilk

Flour your work surface and turn out your mixture. Work in the flour just a little bit before making it into a disc large enough to make a direwolf from it.

Cut the direwolf out from this template.

Brush the wolf down with a beaten egg and bake at 425°F for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.

½ cup buttermilk

Cool on a rack. While it’s cooling, combine 2 parts butter to 1 part honey for a delicious honey butter mixture to put on your direwolf scone.
