We’ve found the most simple, easy, fun, and low-cal summertime dessert! This sweet treat is traditionally high in fat, but the skinny swaps ensure a healthier take. The kabobs make for a clean, easy presentation and double as super simple portion control!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups white whole-wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
- ¾ cup low-fat buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
- 12 (6 inch) bamboo skewers
- 1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled and halved horizontally
- ¾ cup low-fat frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip® Lite), thawed (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
Step 2
Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your hands until crumbly.
Step 3
Stir buttermilk and applesauce together in a separate bowl; pour into the flour mixture until dough comes together and is sticky. Using 2 spoons, drop dough into about 1/2 tablespoon-size mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, making 36 total mounds.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until the bottoms are slightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Cool biscuits.
Step 5
Thread 3 biscuits onto each skewer, alternating with 3 strawberries halves, until all the ingredients are used. Top each skewer with whipped topping.
Cook’s Notes:
If you can't find 6-inch skewers and need to cut them in half, use a pair of pliers that can cut wood or wire instead of scissors or breaking them in half by hand. They're called skewers for a reason!
