Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup 2% cottage cheese, blended
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Mix-ins

  • 3/4 cup ripe or frozen mango, chopped in 1/2 inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped, salted roasted pistachios.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla. Blend until completely smooth.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, turmeric, and cinnamon.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.
  • Gently fold in all but a handful of the diced mango.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This helps the flour hydrate and creates fluffier biscuits.
  • Using an icecream scoop or two tablespoon measuring spoon, portion the batter onto the prepared sheet pan, leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit. Top the biscuits with the remaining mango pieces and if adding pistachios, then pistachios.
  • Bake for 16-18 mins. The biscuits are ready when: The tops are lightly golden, they spring back when gently pressed, a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Brush 1 tablespoon of unsalted melted butter as optional.
