Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1¾ cups plain whole, Greek yogurt (395g)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour (300g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1½ cups shredded sharp yellow cheddar cheese, divided
  • ⅓ cup scallions, green and white parts, thinly sliced (about 3 to 4 scallions)

Instructions

  • Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and eggs until completely smooth.
  • Add the Dry Ingredients: To the same bowl, sprinkle over the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated garlic.
  • Make the Dough: Gently stir with a spatula until just barely combined.
  • Gently stir in 1 cup of the cheddar and all the scallions until evenly distributed, being careful not to overmix.
  • Tip: The dough will be thick and sticky, that's correct! Resist the urge to kneed or overmix, you want to mix until just combined and no longer.
  • Shape and Bake: Using a ⅓-cup measuring cup or large cookie scoop, portion the dough into 12 even mounds on the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheddar evenly over the tops.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops are just beginning to color.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the biscuits cool on the pan for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm as a breakfast on their own or alongside soup.

Notes

  • These are a heartier, denser biscuit than a traditional flaky butter biscuit, which is expected and intentional. The Greek yogurt and eggs are doing the work that butter normally does, which means more protein and less fat.
