Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 0.5 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cup low-fat milk (or plant-based milk of choice)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the unsweetened applesauce and non-fat Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until crumbly and evenly distributed.

Step 4

Gradually stir in the milk a little at a time, mixing gently until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 5

Using a large spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. The biscuits should be rustic in shape.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving warm.
