# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
2½ cups flour, all-purpose
02 -
4 large eggs
03 -
1¾ cups 2% plain Greek yogurt
04 -
¼ cup flaxseed, ground
→ Seasonings
05 -
2 teaspoons table salt
06 -
1 teaspoon powdered garlic
07 -
½ teaspoon red chili flakes
08 -
1 tablespoon leavening agent (baking powder)
→ Mix-ins
09 -
1½ cups spinach, finely chopped
10 -
2 cups cooked ham, cut into cubes
11 -
½ cup chopped chives
12 -
1½ cups grated cheddar, split in two portions
# Instructions:
01 -
Set the oven to 400°F and get a baking sheet ready with parchment.
02 -
In one bowl, stir together eggs and yogurt. In a separate bowl, mix flour, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
03 -
Mix the dry bowl into the wet bowl. Stir in ham, spinach, chives, and 1 cup of the cheese until evenly combined.
04 -
Dust your hands lightly with flour. Shape into 12 small disks, about 1-inch thick. Lay them out on the baking sheet and sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top.
05 -
Bake them at 400°F for 5 minutes. Drop the temperature to 350°F and bake another 20 minutes, or until they’re golden on top.
# Notes:
01 -
These have less fat, so they’re denser than fluffy biscuits.
02 -
Swap the flaxseed for extra flour, if needed.
03 -
If using other meats, make sure they’re cooked beforehand.
