Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. Blend cottage cheese until smooth, then whisk with eggs in a bowl.
  2. Fold in flour, baking powder, and salt until half combined, then fold in cheddar until no dry flour remains.
  3. Drop 6 equal mounds onto the sheet and shape into rough rounds without pressing down.
  4. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden and the tops spring back lightly.
  5. Brush hot biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt. Serve warm.

Notes

If the dough sticks to your fingers while shaping, dampen your hands slightly and the dough will release easily. These biscuits hold their shape best on parchment, untreated silicone mats can cause the bottoms to spread.
