Delicious and nutritious biscuits packed with protein, perfect for busy mornings or leisurely brunches.

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
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 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 the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Whisk together the Greek yogurt and room-temperature eggs until smooth and creamy in a large bowl.
  3. Mix the flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes (if using) in another bowl.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fold in the wilted spinach, chopped chives, and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  6. Drop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For best results, let eggs reach room temperature before mixing, and squeeze out excess liquid from spinach to prevent sogginess.
