Description
These Easy Breakfast Protein Biscuits are a flavorful, high-protein option perfect for busy mornings, post-gym snacks, or weekend brunch. Packed with cottage cheese, crispy bacon, spinach, and cheddar, they’re soft, savory, and freezer-friendly!
Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
1/4 cup black olives, sliced
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese and eggs until smooth.
3. Stir in cheddar cheese, chopped bacon, spinach, and olives until evenly combined.
4. Add baking powder, salt, and pepper. Gradually fold in the flour until a thick dough forms—avoid overmixing.
5. Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet in mounds and lightly flatten with the back of a spoon.
6. Bake for 18–22 minutes or until golden and firm.
7. Let cool slightly before serving. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
Notes
Don’t overmix the dough or your biscuits may turn dense.
For a vegetarian version, substitute the bacon with mushrooms or veggie sausage.
These freeze well! Wrap each biscuit individually for easy grab-and-go meals.
