Combine 1/2 cup whole wheat flour and self-rising flour in medium bowl. Mix
in buttermilk. Knead dough on lightly floured surface 2 minutes. Cover and
let rest 15 minutes.

Divide dough into 8 pieces. Roll 1 piece into smooth ball (keep remainder
covered with towel). Dust generously with whole wheat flour and roll into
5-inch-diameter circle, dusting with flour to prevent sticking. Cover.
Repeat with remaining dough.

degrees. Add 1 dough round to oil; dough will sink to bottom. When dough
starts to rise, gently press in center with back of slotted spoon until
bread puffs. Turn and cook until light brown, about 20 seconds. Transfer
