  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

  • 1/2 cup non-hydrogenated margarine
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened soymilk

What You Do:

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, sift together white flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder, sea salt, cream of tartar, and sugar.
