Peanut Butter Oat Biscuits

Prep: 20 min | Bake: 12 min | Yield: 9 biscuits

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fat-free milk (lactose-free milk is an option)
  • 1/3 cup fat-free Greek yogurt, honey flavored
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small cubes (extra cold)
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • Melted butter for brushing on top of biscuits (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Whisk milk and yogurt together until a thick mixture forms and set aside.
  3. Whisk together oats, flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut butter into flour with a fork until the flour becomes crumbly.
  4. Combine peanut butter and milk mixture in a separate bowl until fully combined. Add this to your flour mixture and stir until everything is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Place dough onto a lightly floured surface. Lightly knead the dough a few times.
  6. Roll dough out into a 1 inch thick disc; be careful not to overwork the dough though.
  7. Using a round cookie cutter/dough cutter push down into dough and lightly twist. Repeat until dough is used up and place on a baking sheet. Dough should make about 9 to 12 biscuits.
  8. Brush the tops of each biscuit with a little melted butter, if desired.
  9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until lightly golden brown (use the lower oven rack if not brushing with butter).
  10. Let cool on cooling rack for 5 minutes and serve warm with your favorite filling.

Notes

Filling suggestions: low-fat yogurt and berry mixture, butter, fat-free cream cheese, jam, apple butter, honey, chocolate, chocolate hazelnut spread, or more peanut butter.

Biscuits stay fresh covered in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. These also freeze well.

These are best served warm, re-toasted in the oven with apple butter or cream cheese on top!
