3-Ingredient Greek Yogurt Protein Biscuits
A healthy, macro-friendly take on classic Southern biscuits made with self-rising flour, non-fat Greek yogurt, and a buttery golden finish. These biscuits bake up tender, fluffy, and protein-packed with minimal effort.
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- biscuit cutter or round glass
- Pastry Brush
Ingredients
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1.5 cups non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt together until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4–5 times until smooth. Do not overwork.
- Pat the dough to 1-inch thickness and cut out 6 biscuits using a biscuit cutter or round glass.
- Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet so they are just touching, then brush the tops with melted butter.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and well risen.
- Let cool for 5 minutes and serve warm.
Notes
Use only thick Greek yogurt—regular yogurt is too loose and will make the dough sticky. Avoid twisting the biscuit cutter to help maximize rise. Best served fresh, but they freeze and reheat beautifully in an air fryer or oven.
