Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 cups flour or whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 16 oz cottage cheese
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 whole eggs, whisked
  • 6 oz ham or turkey, diced
  • 1/3 cup chives, finely chopped

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • whisk
  • wooden spoon
  • Silicone spatula
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • knife
  • Bench scraper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly flour the parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, add flour, onion powder, garlic powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until combined.
  3. In a medium bowl, add cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, eggs, ham, and chives. Mix until fully combined.
  4. Add the cottage cheese mixture to the large bowl with dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula. When the dough begins to form, switch to using clean floured hands to mix the dough and form a large dough ball. Add a sprinkle of flour if the dough is too sticky; it will be slightly sticky but should form into a ball.
  5. Place the dough ball on the lined baking sheet and flatten with your hands to form a rectangle, roughly 7” by 10”.
  6. Using a knife or bench scraper, divide the dough into 12 equal biscuits. Space the biscuits apart evenly on the baking sheet.
  7. Bake biscuits for 22-25 minutes until tops are slightly golden brown and bottoms are golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
