Savory biscuits made with Greek yogurt, eggs, cheese, and diced ham, perfect for quick breakfasts or brunch gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1¾ cups plain 2% Greek yogurt
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup ground flaxseed
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1½ cups spinach, wilted and squeezed dry
  • ½ cup chives, chopped
  • 1½ cups cheddar cheese, shredded (reserve ½ cup for topping)
  • 2 cups diced ham

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a muffin tin.
  2. Whisk the yogurt and room-temperature eggs until smooth and slightly frothy in a large bowl.
  3. Add flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Stir gently until just combined.
  4. Fold in the wilted spinach, chopped chives, and shredded cheddar (except the ½ cup reserved for topping) and diced ham.
  5. Use a ⅓-cup measure per biscuit. Drop portions onto the baking sheet or fill muffin wells nearly to the top.
  6. Sprinkle each with the reserved cheddar and bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Let cool on the pan for 10 minutes before serving or transferring to a rack.
