Buttermilk Biscuits
High-Protein Biscuits Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups Elevate Protein Flour
- 1 Tbsp Baking Powder
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 4 Tbsp Cold Butter + 1 Tbsp, melted, for brushing
- 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp Nonfat Fairlife Milk
- 1 Tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the Elevate Protein Flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Cut in cold butter and add greek yogurt. Mix with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add milk to the dry ingredients, stir or use your hands to mix until the dough comes together. You may not need all of the milk mixture. I found the sweet spot to be 1/2 cup and 1 tbsp (135ml).
- Knead the dough gently 15 times, ensuring the dough stays cohesive but soft.
- Gently roll or pat the dough to 1 inch thick. Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter or a wide-mouthed drinking glass to cut biscuits. Reroll the scraps to cut out additional biscuits. Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
