Ingredients
1 ½ cups almond flour
½ cup unflavored protein powder (whey or plant-based)
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 large eggs
½ cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)
2 tbsp melted coconut oil or butter
Optional: shredded cheese, chopped herbs, or cooked bacon bits
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and melted coconut oil or butter until smooth.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until a thick dough forms. Add 1–2 tbsp almond flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Scoop the dough into 8 evenly sized rounds on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Mix in cheese and herbs for a cheesy herb version.
For extra protein and flavor, add turkey bacon or sausage.
To make it dairy-free, use coconut yogurt and plant-based protein powder.
Add garlic powder or smoked paprika for a flavor boost.
Shape into mini biscuits for snack-sized portions.
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
Reheat in the microwave (20 seconds) or oven (5 minutes at 350°F).
