Why Protein Biscuits Are a Morning Game Changer
Packed with high-quality protein and made with simple pantry staples, these biscuits offer a filling breakfast that keeps you full for hours—without sacrificing taste or adding excess sugar. They’re perfectly soft, savory, and offer a subtle cheesy flavor that pairs with everything from eggs to fresh fruit.
Prepare a batch ahead of time, freeze, and reheat in minutes for a no-stress, nutrient-rich start—all while avoiding the processed ingredients found in store-bought options.
Ingredient Highlights and Customization Tips
The secret to these biscuits is a blend of whole wheat flour, cottage cheese (for creaminess and protein), shredded cheddar, and a handful of flavor boosters. Feel free to customize with herbs, diced veggies, or cooked bacon.
For even chopping and uniform flavor distribution, use the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper if you plan to add veggies or herbs. It saves time and ensures pieces are the perfect size for even baking.
How to Shape and Bake Fluffy Protein Biscuits
Evenly shaped biscuits bake best. A standard cookie scoop ensures consistent portions, while baking on a lined tray prevents sticking.
For foolproof, nonstick baking and effortless cleanup, line your tray with the Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll. You’ll get golden biscuits that release easily, every time.
Freezer-Friendly for Effortless Meal Prep
One of the best features of this recipe is how well these protein biscuits freeze. Simply cool, wrap individually, and stash in an airtight container.
When ready to eat, just reheat in an oven, toaster, or air fryer. For perfectly crisp reheating, try the COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt—it delivers just-baked texture in minutes without drying the biscuit.
What to Serve with Protein Biscuits
Pair them with eggs, avocado, or a breakfast salad for a complete meal. When packing them for lunch, keep them fresh in a Bentgo Salad Container—the airtight seal maintains flavor and softness whether you’re at work, school, or on the go.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with a piece of the Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for easy release and cleanup.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add shredded cheddar and mix to coat cheese with flour.
- In a separate bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, yogurt, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth. If including veggies or herbs, chop them finely with the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper and fold into the wet ingredients.
- Stir wet mixture into dry ingredients with a spatula just until combined (don’t overmix; dough will be thick).
- With a scoop or spoon, drop 8 even mounds onto the lined tray. Bake 14–16 minutes, until golden and firm to the touch.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack.
- For freezing: Cool completely, wrap each biscuit in foil or parchment, and seal in a Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5 (3.2 Cup). Reheat as needed for a fast breakfast!
