Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup low-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda until well combined.
Add the low-fat Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon or spatula until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. The dough will be moist and sticky.
Gradually add the low-fat milk while stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, gently pat the dough to about 1-inch thick.
Use a round biscuit cutter or an overturned glass to cut biscuits out of the dough. Re-roll scraps gently to cut additional biscuits.
Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, placing them close together for a softer edge or spaced apart for a crisper edge.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted unsalted butter for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
