Ingredients
Scale
The best part about these biscuits? You probably have most of the ingredients right in your pantry. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
- 2 tablespoons honey
Feel free to swap Greek yogurt with cottage cheese for an extra protein boost or use almond milk if you’re going dairy-free. I often play around with these swaps depending on what’s in my fridge—because who’s got time for a grocery run every day?
Instructions
Now, onto the fun part—making these delicious biscuits!
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This is always the first step—I learned the hard way to avoid scrambling at the last minute.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the diced butter to the flour mixture. Use your fingers to crumble it until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This part always reminds me of my dad showing me how to “feel” the dough.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, protein powder, and honey until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky, and that’s okay.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Roll it out to about 1/2-inch thickness.
- Use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. The smell wafting through your kitchen will be enough to wake the kids!
- Let them cool slightly before serving. These are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven.
