Four-Ingredient Drop Biscuits

| BY:
Four-Ingredient Drop Biscuits

Nothing beats the smell of buttery, golden-brown biscuits or drop biscuits – especially when they’re still warm from the oven.

Unfortunately, most biscuit recipes are loaded with fat.

Not only will you find butter mixed into every nook-and-cranny of dough (that’s what makes them flaky), but many biscuits are then slathered with extra butter before serving.

This super simple, four-ingredient recipe is a great way to indulge in a lighter version of traditional biscuits. Rather than relying on heaps of butter, Greek yogurt keeps these drop biscuits light in both calories and texture.

Yogurt is a genius substitute that not only cuts down on the fat; but it also helps replicate the familiar tang of buttermilk biscuits.

Pro tip: Use whole-milk Greek yogurt for the best results, as a little bit of fat is needed for flaky biscuits.

To take your drop biscuits completely over the top, you can fold in fresh herbs or cheese for a bit of extra flavor.

Variations:

  • Add ¼ cup of your favorite chopped fresh herbs (like basil, parsley, cilantro, or oregano) when adding the yogurt.
  • Add ¼ cup chopped green onions when adding the yogurt.
  • Add 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary or thyme when adding the yogurt.
  • Add ½ cup shredded cheese when adding the yogurt. Make sure you add 1 tsp. when calculating your container equivalents.
  • Add ½ cup crumbled feta, blue, or goat cheese when adding yogurt. Make sure you add ½ tsp. when calculating your container equivalents.
