Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Plain 2% Greek Yogurt
  • 2 large Eggs (room temperature preferred)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (substitute with gluten-free blend if needed)
  • 2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseed (chia seeds can be used)
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder (ensure freshness)
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt (kosher or sea salt preferred)
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder (fresh minced garlic may be substituted)
  • 0.25 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
  • 1 cup Spinach (wilted & squeezed dry)
  • 2 tablespoons Chives (chopped)
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (shredded; substitute with favorite cheese if desired)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it lightly or using muffin liners.
  2. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes if using in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Beat together the Greek yogurt and eggs until smooth in a separate bowl.
  4. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients using a spatula until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in the wilted spinach, chopped chives, and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly incorporated.
  6. Divide the biscuit mixture among the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 20-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow to cool slightly in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

These biscuits can be paired with Greek yogurt or hot sauce for an extra zing, and they store well in the refrigerator and freezer.
