In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt and eggs until smooth.

How to Make Breakfast Protein Biscuits (Overview)

Making these biscuits is a breeze! Start by preheating your oven and mixing the wet ingredients. Then, you’ll combine the dry stuff and fold in your choice of delectable mix-ins. Scoop the batter onto your baking sheet and add some reserved cheese on top (because who can resist that melty goodness?). Pro tip: Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for the best texture—trust me; it makes a difference!

How to Serve Breakfast Protein Biscuits

Serve these beauties warm for a delightful crunch as you bite into them. For a fun twist, pair them with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a side of salsa—your taste buds will thank you! The gorgeous colors of spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, along with the gooey melted cheese, create a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

How to Store Breakfast Protein Biscuits

These biscuits keep well in the fridge for about 3–4 days. For longer storage, pop them into the freezer, where they will hold up for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply reheat in a toaster oven or microwave. Make ’em ahead for busy weekdays, and save your sanity!

Tips to Make Breakfast Protein Biscuits

Timing is Everything: Don’t let the batter sit for too long before baking—these biscuits are best when fresh!
Flavor Boost: Experiment with mix-ins like roasted red peppers or even cooked bacon to customize these biscuits.
Gluten-Free Option: Swap out all-purpose flour for a gluten-free blend if you need to keep it GF!
