WW CHEDDAR BISCUITS RECEIPE
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold light butter (with 50% less fat), cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional)
- Cooking spray
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the cold, diced butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the fat-free Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped chives (if using). Mix until the dough comes together. It may be a bit sticky.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it’s manageable.
- Roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Gather any remaining dough scraps, reroll, and cut out more biscuits.
- Lightly spray the tops of the biscuits with cooking spray to help them brown.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
These biscuits are a lighter version of the classic cheddar biscuits and are suitable for those following the Weight Watchers program. Enjoy them as a side to a soup or salad, or as a savory snack. Be sure to calculate the WW points based on the ingredients you use and the serving size.
