Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cottage cheese
1 large egg
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup milk
Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk the cottage cheese, egg, olive oil, and milk until smooth and well combined.
4. Create the Dough:
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
5. Roll out the dough:
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll the dough out to about ½-inch thickness.
6. Shape the biscuits:
Use a round cutter or the rim of a glass (about 2-3 inches in diameter) to cut out circles of dough. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut out more biscuits.
7. Bake:
Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
Let the biscuits cool slightly before serving. These pair beautifully with butter, jam, or even savory toppings like cream cheese or smoked salmon.
Pro Tips
Add Herbs: For a savory twist, mix in chopped fresh herbs like chives or parsley.
Extra Cheesy: Sprinkle a little shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese on top before baking for extra indulgence.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
