Instructions
Creating these Breakfast Protein Biscuits is straightforward. Follow this simple step-by-step guide:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Cream the Butter: In another bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth and fluffy.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the milk, egg, and honey/maple syrup to the creamed butter and mix until well combined.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. Stir in shredded cheese and herbs if using.
6. Shape the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently. Then, roll it out to about 1-inch thickness.
7. Cut the Biscuits: Use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits from the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.
9. Cool: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
