Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 0.25 cup low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.
Step 3
Add the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese to the flour mixture and stir to coat the cheese in the flour.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, low-fat buttermilk, low-fat plain yogurt, and honey until smooth.
Step 5
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, gently folding with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Step 6
Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat cheddar biscuits!
