Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, cold
  • 0.5 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.5 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Using your hands, scoop about 1/4 cup of dough at a time and form into a small ball. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches between each biscuit.

Step 7

Gently flatten each ball slightly with your hand to form a biscuit shape.

Step 8

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your fluffy, low carb buttermilk biscuits!
