Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 scoop (about 20g) unflavored protein powder
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and protein powder.
- Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in Greek yogurt and milk until just combined; add a splash more milk if the dough is too dry.
