Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to evenly distribute these ingredients.
  3. Add Cheese: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese into the dry mixture, ensuring it is evenly mixed for consistent flavor throughout the biscuits.
  4. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, eggs, and olive oil (or melted butter) until you achieve a smooth and homogenous mixture.
  5. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix gently until a soft dough forms, being careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits tender.
  6. Shape Biscuits: Scoop the dough into biscuit-sized portions using a spoon or cookie scoop and place them spaced evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the biscuits for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are set in the middle.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with butter or extra Greek yogurt if desired.

Notes

  • Perfect for meal prep: refrigerate or freeze any extra biscuits for quick and easy breakfasts throughout the week.
  • Serve warm with butter or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added creaminess and flavor.
  • For a lighter version, substitute part-skim cheddar cheese and nonfat Greek yogurt to reduce fat content.
