Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Low-fat buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Nonfat Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 cup Green onions (thinly sliced)
• 0 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the low-fat buttermilk, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the biscuits dense.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped green onions until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop 8 evenly-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and set in the center.

Step 8

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm. Enjoy!
