Description

Start your morning strong with these hearty Breakfast Protein Biscuits — soft, buttery, and packed with protein for lasting energy. Perfect for busy mornings, post-workout snacks, or weekend brunches.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 scoops (about ½ cup) unflavored or vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ¾ cup low-fat Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup milk (plus more if needed)
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add Greek yogurt, milk, and honey (if using). Stir until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Roll the dough to 1-inch thickness, cut with a biscuit cutter, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Cool slightly before serving warm with butter, jam, or nut butter.

Notes

Use plain or vanilla protein powder depending on your flavor preference. For savory biscuits, add cheese or herbs. For a sweeter twist, drizzle with honey and pair with fruit. These biscuits are freezer-friendly and reheat beautifully for quick breakfasts.
