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
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk (plus more if needed)
  • Optional: shredded cheese, chopped herbs, or cooked sausage for mix-ins

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and protein powder.
  3. Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in Greek yogurt and milk until just combined; add a splash more milk if the dough is too dry.
  5. Turn dough onto a floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle and fold it into thirds. Repeat once or twice.
  6. Pat dough to about 3/4-inch thickness and cut biscuits with a sharp cutter.
  7. Place on baking sheet (touching for soft sides, spaced apart for crisp edges).
  8. Bake 12–15 minutes, until tops are golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
