Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup Fine Almond Flour
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 tbsp. Vital Wheat Gluten
  • 1 tbsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp. Xanthan Gum
  • 1 tsp. Salt
  • 2 tbsp. Melted Butter optional

Instructions

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 350 F. Line a 9 inch cast iron skillet or baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sour cream until fully combined.
  • 3. Mix in the almond flour, vital wheat gluten, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Use a rubber spatula or spoon and mix until its fully combined.
  • 4. Use a cookie scoop and press the dough into it and then drop onto the parchment paper. Repeat until you get all 8 biscuits scooped out (keep them about an inch apart).
  • 5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until they are set in the middle and golden brown on top. I like to brush melted butter on the tops the last 5 minutes of baking or when they come out of the oven.
  • 6. Serve warm with your favorite breakfast or as a side dish.

Notes

I like to play around with different flavor combinations for both sweet and savory keto style biscuits. Try one of the following flavor pairings to the biscuit dough-
  • Make them Cajun style with cheddar cheese and my Cajun BBQ dry rub. Toss in some minced green onions and serve them with your favorite seafood (I love it with smoked crab legs too).
  • Cheddar and Spicy Jalapeno style for a little kick to go with that chorizo gravy.
  • Want a sweet version that's still sugar free? Try adding a little vanilla, low carb sweetener, and cinnamon for a fun twist on a classic biscuit.
  • Make a garlic knot inspired biscuit with parmesan, garlic, and Italian seasonings!
