Description
These savory, high-protein drop biscuits feature creamy cottage cheese, zesty sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh basil for a Mediterranean-inspired breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup low-fat or full fat cottage cheese
3 large eggs
2 to 4 tablespoons milk (as needed)
1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1/4 cup feta cheese
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs and cottage cheese together until combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until a thick dough forms.
- Drizzle in milk 1 tablespoon at a time if the dough is too dry to incorporate the flour.
- Gently fold in the sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, and fresh basil.
- Scoop 1/4 cup portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Do not use fat-free cottage cheese as it lacks the necessary fat for a tender crumb.
- Ensure sun-dried tomatoes are patted dry to prevent soggy biscuits.
- Store in the refrigerator due to the high protein and cheese content.
