Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the heavy cream with the apple cider vinegar and let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a keto-friendly 'buttermilk'.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum.

Step 4

Add in the cold, cubed unsalted butter. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and the 'buttermilk'.

Step 6

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 10 biscuits.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the biscuits to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm with your favorite keto-friendly topping.
