I always reach for recipes that make my mornings smoother, and this High Protein Biscuit hits that sweet spot perfectly.

And it’s perfect for busy mornings when you want something filling without spending too long in the kitchen. Plus, the kids love it. Isn’t that the real win?

Ingredients Needed To Make This High Protein Biscuits

• 1 cup oat flour (or blend rolled oats)
• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 2 eggs
• ½ cup shredded cheddar (plus extra for topping)
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp garlic powder (optional but delicious)
• Chopped chives or spring onions

Instructions To Make High Protein Biscuits

Step 1: Prep your bowl

Add oat flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Give it a quick whisk.

Step 2: Blend the protein base

In a mixer or blender, add cottage cheese and eggs. Blend until smooth. The batter becomes creamy and gives that perfect biscuit texture.

Step 3: Combine

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently. Don’t overmix.

Step 4: Add flavor

Fold in shredded cheddar and chopped chives. Trust me, this step makes the biscuits irresistible.

Step 5: Scoop and shape

Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined tray. Slightly flatten them. Add a pinch of cheddar on top.

Step 6: Bake

Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the tops turn golden and the edges set.

Step 7: Cool slightly

These taste best warm, but let them rest for 5 minutes so they firm up.

Variations to Try

• Spicy Kick: Add chopped jalapeños or chili flakes.
• Herby Twist: Mix in rosemary, thyme, or Italian seasoning.
• Extra Protein: Add a scoop of unflavored whey protein – just increase liquid by 1 to 2 tbsp.
• Low-Carb Version: Replace oat flour with almond flour (½ cup cottage cheese may need to increase).
• Cheese Lovers:  Switch things up by using mozzarella or even a bold pepper jack instead of cheddar (It changes the whole vibe in the best way).

Every time I bake these High Protein Biscuits, the kitchen smells warm and cozy, and honestly, that’s the best way to start a hectic morning.
