everything bagel high-protein breakfast biscuit ingredient notes:
Everything Bagel Seasoning: It feels like everything gets better with everything bagel seasoning, and you know that my go-to will always be the Trader Joes’s one. What you might not know is what exactly it means by “everything”…it includes sesame seeds, sea salt, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, black sesame seeds, and poppy seeds.
Ground Chicken: Paired with the eggs, the ground chicken gives these biscuits that extra protein boost, perfect for busy mornings on-the-go. You can also opt for ground turkey or pork here, but be sure to reduce the salt to 1/2 teaspoon if using pork.
Flour: This recipe was developed using naturally gluten-free flour, however if you don’t have or don’t want to use almond and coconut flour, you can replace them with all purpose flour. Check out the recipe notes below for ratio details.
Eggs: The eggs here really act as a binder for the biscuits, so even if you have a picky eater on your hands or just someone who gets the egg ick, you can still enjoy this recipe! Cooking eggs in the morning is not only time consuming, but also uses so many dishses! I love to prep these biscuits ahead of time for easy clean-up only once, and protein throughout the week.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 pound ground chicken
6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded (divided)
3 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning, additional for topping
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
1/3 cup coconut flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Push the onions to the side of the skillet to create a hole in the center. Add the ground chicken in the center and cook, breaking up any large chunks with a wooden spoon, until the chicken is browned and the onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and season with the everything bagel seasoning, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Carefully pour off any excess oil and set the mixture aside to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until no streaks remain. Add in the chicken mixture, 1 cup of the Cheddar cheese, and mix to combine. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder, and mix until just combined. Do not over mix
- Use a lightly oiled large cookie scoop, a spoon, or your clean hands, scoop about 12 balls of dough onto the sheet pan, spacing them 1 to 2 inches apart. Press down gently on the top of each ball to form a biscuit. Evenly sprinkle the top of the biscuits with the remaining 1/2 cup of Cheddar.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the biscuits are baked through and lightly browned all over.
Notes
- Store it: Refrigerate in an sealed container for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat it: To reheat from the refrigerator, bake or air fry at 325°F, 5 to 7 minutes. Alternatively, microwave until warm, 1 to 2 minutes. To reheat from the freezer, either thaw for 8 hours in the fridge, or overnight, then bake or air fry at 325°F for 5 to 7 minutes, or if wholly frozen, bake or air fry at 325F for 10- 12 minutes. From the freezer, microwave until warm, 2 to 3 minutes.
These biscuits are wonderfully forgiving and easy to customize. Prefer all almond flour? Use 2½ cups blanched almond flour and skip the coconut flour. You can also swap both for 2¾ cups gluten-free or regular all-purpose flour (you’ll lose some protein). Even the ground meat is flexible— try a block of pressed, shredded tofu instead.- Ground meat: Swap the ground chicken for ground turkey or ground pork. If using ground pork, reduce the salt to 1/2 teaspoon.
Note: The recipe yields about 12 biscuits total, each serving is 2 biscuits.

Can’t wait to try these! Do you have the calorie or macros information for these?
I plugged all the ingredients into “My Fitness Pal” and based on this recipe making 12 biscuits, each were 186 calories.
Do you know the protein, fat, and carbs by any chance?
What is your recommended warming up method if one doesn’t have an air fryer?
Wow! I just made these and they are delicious! I used Impossible Sausage instead of ground meat and they turned out great. Gonna be a regular meal at our house. Thank you Jenn! Keep cooking
Love these!
Hi! What’s the best way to reheat if you don’t have an air fryer?
Hey! So do you not put any seasoning on the chicken before you add it to the egg mix? Just cooking mine up now, cant wait to try them.
So good! I made these for the week. I prefer these to plain egg bites – easier to eat. I froze the extra and reheated in microwave. Definitely recommend
How did you freeze?
Delicious!!!! I’ve made these a couple times and changed ingredients to fit the mood and they are a winner!!!!

Would I be able to leave the cheese out completely or is it necessary for a binder in the recipe? I cannot eat dairy and don’t like non-dairy cheese so I was wondering if you think the recipe would work without it?
I love these biscuits! One of my favorites. It saves me so much time in the mornings. It’s freezer friendly. It tasted delicious. Thank you Jen! ❤️
Would love to know if you could use sausage links instead of ground meat? We like very clean chicken sausage links.
Another winner 🏆 I’ve made 3 of your biscuit recipes so far and they are all amazing!
I made them yesterday as part of my weekly meal prep! Just curious what the nutritional value is for one biscuit? I tried figuring it out myself but I want to make sure I am correct!
These are so good! Made a batch this morning and my picky toddlers have had them for breakfast and lunch today!
Do you have calorie and nutrition info the biscuits. Would like to log it ina food tracking app.
Just made these. Delicious!
I made these tonight and subbed a 16 oz block of ground impossible meat and vegan cheese. Next time I would use less impossible meat because I think the chicken must cook down more and mine were like meatball biscuits! They were still delicious and will make a great breakfast this week.
Looking forward to adding these to my routine! Do you have an estimate of how much protein is in each biscuit? Thank you!
Hi there! Love your recipes, can’t wait to try this one! Is it possible to sub in regular flour for the almond/coconut? I don’t have access to either.
I plugged the recipe into my fitness pal and it gave me this for nutrition info: 346 calories, 28.1g protein, 18.6g fat, 16.3g carbs
These were amazing!! I made exactly as the recipe called for (minus the onion because it somehow didn’t make it home from the grocery store).
I have mixed feeling about these, I don’t think I quite knew what to expect when making them, & maybe I learned I don’t like almond flour very much. The texture was interesting. I’ll try it again, I like that they are a healthy breakfast option & they have good flavor. But maybe I cooked them too long.
Do you list the nutritional value per serving for your recipes?
I made these today w/ground turkey, & they are FABTASTIC!! A definite repeat!
Disappointed. I followed the recipe but the batter was so dry and tough even raw.
