Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the flour mixture.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the low-fat buttermilk and low-fat mayonnaise until smooth and combined.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the biscuits tough.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown on the edges.

Step 8

While the biscuits are baking, melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stove, then stir in finely chopped fresh parsley.

Step 9

Once the biscuits are out of the oven, brush them with the melted butter and parsley mixture for a burst of fresh flavor.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat Cheddar Bay Biscuits with any meal.
