- 1 1/2 C 180g All Purpose Flour
- 2 Tbsp 24g Granulated Sugar Substitute*
- 1/2 Tbsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt or 1/4 tsp table salt
- 3/4 C 170g Fat Free Greek Yogurt
- 2 Tbsp 28g Light Butter**
- 1 Egg Yolk for brushing***
Preheat oven to 375F and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl before cutting the butter in with a fork.
Add the Greek yogurt and mix until a dough begins to form. Don't over mix. There should be some remaining flour in the bowl.
Empty the dough and remaining dry ingredients onto a flat surface. Use your hands to work everything together until no crumbs remain.
Press the dough into a rectangle before cutting the dough into 6 pieces.
Brush the 6 pieces with an egg yolk (or other options from the notes) and add to the baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits have risen and their tops are golden brown.
*I used Swerve.
**I used Land O' Lakes with canola.
***You can also use 1/2 Tbsp (7g) light butter mixed with 1 tsp honey or 1 Tbsp liquid egg whites or skim milk.
