Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or prepare a muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of plain 2% Greek yogurt and 2 large eggs until the mixture is smooth.
  3. In another bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of ground flaxseed, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
  4. Fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined to maintain a tender texture.
  5. Fold in your choice of savory add-ins, ensuring they are evenly distributed but do not overwork the dough.
  6. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop portions of the biscuit dough onto the prepared baking sheet or into the muffin tin, spaced 2 inches apart.
  7. Sprinkle additional cheese on top if desired, then bake for 25 minutes, or until golden-brown and firm to the touch.
