Ingredients

• Water - 120 milliliters
• Olive oil - 30 milliliters

• Baking powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Chopped fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons
• Chopped fresh chives - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
3. In a saucepan, combine the water and olive oil and bring to a boil over medium heat.
4. Once boiling, remove from heat and quickly stir in the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until a smooth dough forms.
5. Allow the dough to cool for about 5 minutes, then stir in the flaxseed mixture, nutritional yeast, parsley, and chives until well combined.
6. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a round tip or use a spoon to drop small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
8. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
