Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole-wheat flour
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Skim milk
- 4 slices Lean ham slices
- 4 slices Reduced-fat cheese slices
- 1 for greasing Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together until well mixed.
Step 3
Add the non-fat Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients. Using a fork or pastry cutter, mix the yogurt into the flour mixture until the dough begins to come together.
Step 4
Gradually pour in the skim milk, stirring continuously, until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Step 5
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it becomes smooth.
Step 6
Roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thickness. Using a round biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they have risen and are golden brown.
Step 8
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Step 9
Once the biscuits are cool enough to handle, slice them in half horizontally.
Step 10
Place one slice of lean ham and one slice of reduced-fat cheese on the bottom half of each biscuit.
Step 11
Cover with the top half of the biscuit to create a sandwich.
Step 12
Return the biscuit sandwiches to the baking sheet and place them back in the warm oven for about 3-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
Step 13
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat ham and cheese biscuit sandwich.
