High-protein Spinach & Feta Biscuits (gluten-free

• total time: 29 minutes

Ingredients

1 package fresh spinach (142g), chopped

1 cup egg whites or 4-5 whole eggs

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1 cup almond flour

1 tsp baking powder

5-6 green onions, finely chopped

1 tbsp olive oil (for sautéing)

Salt & pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the green onions and cook for 1-2 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes—season with salt & pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

In a large bowl, combine the egg whites, spinach mixture, almond flour, baking powder, and feta cheese. The mixture should hold together when pressed. If it is too crumbly, add a teaspoon of water or olive oil.

Form the mixture into 6 biscuit shapes or drop spoonfuls onto the baking sheet.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until slightly golden on the edges.

Let the biscuits cool for a few minutes before serving.
