  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 3/4 c almond flour
  • 1/4 c coconut flour or, use all almond flour
  • 1/4 c ground flaxseeds optional
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Pan
  • Large bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cup
  • Cookie scoop

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach, onion, basil, and sun dried tomatoes. Cook for about 5-8 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crisp. Let the vegetables cool for a couple of minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, seasonings, and cooked vegetables until smooth.
  4. Mix in the almond flour, coconut flour, ground flaxseeds, and baking powder. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  5. Using a large cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the lined baking sheet. The batter may spread a bit, which is normal. You should get about 10 biscuits.
  6. Top each biscuit with a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
  7. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the biscuits are firm and golden brown.
  8. Cool the biscuits completely. Refrigerate any leftovers. They will keep for about 5 days in the fridge. Reheat them in the microwave for about a minute to enjoy them again.
