Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.75 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, mix together the low-fat Greek yogurt and low-fat buttermilk until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
Step 4
Lightly flour a clean surface and transfer the dough onto it. With floured hands, gently knead the dough a few times to bring it together.
Step 5
Roll or pat the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a round biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gather any leftover dough, re-roll, and cut out additional biscuits.
Step 6
Brush the melted unsalted butter over the tops of the biscuits for added flavor and moisture.
Step 7
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before serving warm.
