2. Ingredients for High Protein Breakfast Biscuits
- 2 cups of almond flour or oat flour
- 1 cup of vanilla or unflavored protein powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
- 1/4 cup of chopped nuts or seeds (e.g., walnuts, chia seeds)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3. Step-by-step Instructions for Making Protein Biscuits
Prepare the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond or oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and stir until well combined.
Combine and Form the Dough
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until a sticky dough forms. Fold in chopped nuts or seeds for added texture and nutrition.
Shape the Biscuits
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the dough into small biscuits or balls, spacing them evenly apart.
Bake to Perfection
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes until they turn golden brown. Let them cool slightly before storing.
4. Storage Tips for Freezer-Friendly Protein Biscuits
Allow the biscuits to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container or a JoyJolt Airtight Glass Food Storage Set. Freeze the biscuits for future grab-and-go breakfasts. To enjoy, simply thaw at room temperature or reheat in your Ninja Air Fryer Pro Crisp & Roast 4-in-1 for a quick reheat.
