Weight Watchers Garlic Cheese Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for extra fiber)
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese (about 2 oz)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup non-fat Greek yogurt (substitute for heavy cream or butter)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk)
  • 2 tbsp light butter (melted) or a plant-based butter
  • 1/2 tsp garlic minced (optional for more garlic flavor)
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the shredded cheese and stir to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, almond milk, and melted butter.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix.
  6. Use a spoon or cookie scoop to portion out the dough into 8-10 biscuits, depending on desired size.
  7. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Optionally, you can brush the tops with a little melted butter and sprinkle with minced garlic and parsley.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
  9. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
