Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 1/2 cups full-fat cottage cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix Dough: In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and full-fat cottage cheese. Use a large spoon or your hands to mix until a shaggy dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
- Shape Dough: Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Using your hands or a rolling pin, shape the dough into a large circle or rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Be gentle to avoid overworking the dough.
- Cut Biscuits: Using a round cookie cutter, cut out 8 biscuits from the dough. Alternatively, divide the dough into 8 equal portions with a dough cutter.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the cut biscuits evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the biscuits have risen and turned a golden brown color.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving as a savory side or snack.
Notes
- For best results, use full-fat cottage cheese for moisture and flavor.
- Do not overwork the dough to keep biscuits light and fluffy.
- Self-rising flour contains leavening agents; do not substitute with regular flour without adding baking powder.
- Biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days.
