Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup self-rising flour (or homemade by combining 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1½ tsp baking powder, and ¼ tsp salt)
- 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or non-fat, your choice)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, self-rising flour, and protein powder. Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a dough, which may be slightly sticky but should hold together.
- Shape the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it 3 to 4 times to bring it together, then pat it down to about ½-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or round glass to cut out biscuit shapes.
- Bake the Biscuits: Place the cut biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy: Allow the biscuits to cool for a few minutes before serving. They are delicious warm but also reheat well as leftovers.
Notes
- Don’t overwork the dough to keep the biscuits fluffy.
- If the dough feels too sticky, dust your hands or the surface with additional flour.
- These biscuits can be refrigerated for a couple of days or frozen for longer storage.
- Customization ideas include adding shredded cheese for a savory flavor, fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme, or using vanilla protein powder with honey or cinnamon for a sweeter version.
