Full Recipe: 

Ingredients

Base Biscuit Dough:

• 1¾ cups plain 2% Greek yogurt

• 4 large eggs (room temperature)

• 2½ cups all purpose flour (or 1:1 gluten-free blend + xanthan gum)

• ¼ cup ground flaxseed

• 1 tbsp baking powder

• 2 tsp salt

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional) 

Ham & Cheese Chive Variation:

• 1½ cups wilted, squeezed dry spinach

• ½ cup chopped chives

• 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (½ cup reserved for topping)

• 2 cups diced ham 

Mediterranean Sausage Variation:

• 2 cups cooked Italian chicken sausage, crumbled

• ½ cup chopped sun dried tomatoes

• 1½ cups crumbled feta cheese (½ cup reserved for topping)

• 2 tsp dried basil (or ¼ cup fresh basil added after baking) 

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line a baking sheet or grease a muffin tin.

2. Whisk together Greek yogurt and eggs in a large bowl until smooth.

3. Stir in flour, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes; mix just until combined lumps are okay.

4. Gently fold in your chosen mix-ins either the Ham & Cheese Chive set or the Mediterranean Sausage set.

5. Use a ⅓-cup scoop to form 12 biscuits. Place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet (or into muffin cups).

6. Sprinkle the reserved cheese (cheddar or feta) on top of each biscuit.

7. Bake for 25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway if needed, until golden and firm.

8. Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving or storing.
