Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Mixing
  1. Whisk Greek yogurt and eggs in one medium bowl; in a separate bowl, combine flour, ground flax seed, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing until well combined.
  3. Add vegetables, herbs, cooked meat, 1 cup of cheese, and ham, mixing thoroughly until fully incorporated (use your hands if needed).
Shaping & Baking
  1. Lightly flour your hands, divide the dough into 12 even, 1-inch thick round biscuits (about ⅓ cup each), arrange on the prepared baking tray(s), and sprinkle tops with the remaining cheese.
  2. Bake at 400F for 5 minutes, then decrease the temperature to 350F and bake for an additional 20 minutes (do not open the oven in between), until the bottoms are golden brown and tops are lightly browned.

Notes

Ensure all mix-ins are fully incorporated, using your hands if needed. Depending on your baking tray size, you might require two trays for proper biscuit spacing. Avoid opening the oven during the baking process for best results.
