High Protein Butter Biscuits

Biscuits enriched with milk protein concentrate containing 8.5 g of protein and 2 g of VITAGOS™ per serving of 108 g.
Yield: 6 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of milk of choice‡
  • 20 g of Milk Protein Concentrate 85 (MPC 1850)
  • 12 g of VITAGOS™
  • 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon of white granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. Combine the dry ingredients.
  3. With a box grater, shred chilled butter into small pieces. Add to the dry ingredients and stir to combine roughly.
  4. Add the milk and VITAGOS™ and stir until the formation of a cohesive dough. Avoid over-working the dough.
  5. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and fold it in half over itself. Flatten the layers gently together. Rotate the dough 90° and fold in half again before gently flattening the layers together. Repeat this step 5 times while taking care to not over-work the dough.
  6. Flatten the dough to a 1” thickness and cut into 6 portions with a cookie cutter.
  7. Put the biscuits on a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 425°F (218°C) for 12 min or until the tops begin to turn a light golden brown.

Notes:

a. White granulated sugar can be replaced by any other sweetener.

b. The dough should be flattened by hand, not with a rolling pan.

c. The biscuits should be consumed within a day.

d. VITAGOS™ is a source of dietary fiber. As tolerance varies from individual to individual, it is recommended to not exceed 6 servings per day.
