Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/2 cup Whey Protein Powder
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Cold Butter (cut into small pieces)
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup Milk or any dairy-free alternative

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the baking powder for consistent rising.
  2. Cut in the Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until pea-sized crumbs form, which helps create flaky layers in the biscuits.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and milk until smooth, adding moisture and tenderness to the dough.
  4. Combine to Form Dough: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir just until the dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
  5. Shape and Bake: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat it out to about 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut rounds and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • Keep butter cold before cutting it in to maximize flakiness.
  • Mix dough gently to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Measure flour by spooning and leveling to prevent dry biscuits.
  • Use Greek yogurt for improved texture and flavor.
  • Bake on parchment paper for even browning and to prevent sticking.
