Protein Biscuits With Cheddar and Chives
These protein biscuits with cheddar and chives are soft, fluffy, and full of savory flavor, made with Greek yogurt for protein and a fluffy texture.
Servings: 8 biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/3 cup light shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 1 cup plain 0-fat Greek yogurt
- olive oil spray
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Mix in the cheddar cheese and chopped chives until evenly distributed.
- Add the Greek yogurt to the bowl and mix. Use your hands to knead the dough for a few minutes until it comes together.
- Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Use a dough cutter to cut the dough into eight even pieces. Gently roll the pieces and slightly press down to form biscuits. Place the formed biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Lightly spray the biscuits with olive oil spray. Optional: Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake the biscuits at 425°F for 12-15 minutes, until puffed, golden, and lightly crisped on top. Once done, let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
