Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold

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, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes. Add them to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in the shredded reduced-sodium Cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the nonfat milk and plain Greek yogurt until smooth.

Step 6

Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, creating 12 evenly sized mounds.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together the dried parsley and garlic powder for topping.

Step 9

Sprinkle the parsley and garlic mixture evenly over the tops of the biscuits.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving warm.
