These Cottage Cheese and Herb Biscuits are light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh flavors. Perfect for breakfast or as a savory snack, they combine creamy cottage cheese with aromatic herbs for a unique twist on classic biscuits.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup small curd cottage cheese
  • ¼ cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
  • ¼ cup fresh herbs (e.g., chives, parsley, dill), chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well blended.
  3. Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter in until the texture resembles coarse crumbs. This helps create a flaky biscuit texture.
  4. Gently fold in the small curd cottage cheese and freshly chopped herbs into the crumbly mixture until just combined, being careful not to overwork the dough.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently just until it holds together. Pat the dough into rounds about one inch thick.
  6. Place the shaped biscuit rounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow for rising.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cottage cheese herb biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.
  8. Remove the savory cottage cheese biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use cold butter to ensure flaky, tender biscuits.
  • Fresh herbs can be varied according to your preference, such as thyme, rosemary, or basil for these herbed cottage cheese scones.
  • Do not overmix the dough to keep the cottage cheese herb biscuits light and fluffy.
  • Serve these easy cottage cheese biscuits with butter, jam, or alongside soups and salads for a complete meal.
  • You can substitute small curd cottage cheese with ricotta cheese if preferred for your homemade cottage cheese herb rolls.
