Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for High-Protein Breakfast Biscuits
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of nonfat plain Greek yogurt and 2 eggs until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gently stir in 1½ cups of flour, 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Carefully fold in 1 cup of chopped chicken sausage, 1 cup of chopped spinach, and 1 cup of reduced-fat shredded cheese.
  5. Scoop about ½ cup of dough for each biscuit and place them on the prepared muffin tin or baking sheet.
  6. Bake for approximately 25 minutes, looking for a golden-brown color and a firm texture.
  7. Once baked, remove and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.
