Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups superfine almond flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp aluminum free baking powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F and lightly grease the muffin cavities of a 12-cup muffin pan to prepare for baking the biscuits.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, baking powder, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and melted butter until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Combine Batter: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly with a whisk or spoon until the batter is evenly mixed and thick. Then fold in the shredded cheddar cheese.
- Scoop Batter: Using a ¼ cup measure, scoop the sticky batter into the prepared muffin pan cavities, using a spatula to scrape out all the batter evenly into each cup.
- Bake Biscuits: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 10-11 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before removing from the pan and serving warm.
Notes
- Use a muffin pan for baking as the batter is quite liquid and will spread too much on a baking sheet.
- Full fat sour cream ensures a tender and fluffy texture, but cream cheese or plain Greek yogurt can be used as substitutes if needed.
- For variations, add herbs like rosemary, chives, thyme, or parsley to the batter or swap cheddar cheese with another cheese of your choice to change the flavor profile.
