For the Biscuit Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Substitute with whole wheat flour for a heartier texture.

  • 1/2 cup cold butter Can be substituted with margarine or a vegan butter alternative.
  • 1 cup cottage cheese Low-fat versions can be used, though they may yield a slightly drier biscuit.
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs (e.g., chives, parsley, dill) Use finely chopped fresh herbs for best flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Cut ½ cup of cold butter into small cubes and blend it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup of cottage cheese and ¼ cup of finely chopped fresh herbs into the mixture.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, knead gently, and pat it into a 1-inch thick round.
  6. Cut out rounds with a biscuit cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking for a golden brown color.
  8. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
