Description
Delicious and nutritious breakfast biscuits made with cottage cheese, perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced ham
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare your baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Give it a good stir to mix all the dry ingredients together!
- Stir in the cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, diced ham, chopped chives, and melted butter until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky and well combined.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it. Don’t overdo it—just a few turns to bring it together nicely.
- Roll or pat the dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter or your favorite glass, cut into rounds.
- Place the biscuits on your prepared baking sheet, giving them a little room to rise.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are golden brown and puffy. The smell will be irresistible!
- Enjoy warm! These biscuits are best served fresh from the oven, with a pat of butter or your favorite spread.
