Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups blanched almond flour
  • ½ cup grated sharp cheddar cheese plus extra for topping (optional)
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Pinch black pepper

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Small Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spoon or Spatula
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, or lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. This will prevent your biscuits from sticking.
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the blanched almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Ensure these dry ingredients are thoroughly combined to distribute the leavening agent evenly.

  3. Add the grated sharp cheddar cheese to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the two large eggs. Pour the melted butter and the beaten eggs into the almond flour and cheese mixture.

  4. Using a spoon or spatula, gently mix the ingredients until a cohesive dough forms. Be careful not to overmix; you want to incorporate everything until just combined. The dough will be somewhat sticky, which is perfectly normal for keto biscuit recipes.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto your prepared baking sheet. You can shape them loosely into biscuit rounds with your hands, or simply drop them as is for a more rustic look. For extra indulgence, sprinkle a little more grated cheddar on top of each biscuit before baking.

  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. The exact baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking period. They should feel firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  7. Once baked, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Allow the easy keto cheddar biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool further. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

Stored in the refrigerator, these biscuits will stay fresh for up to 4-5 days. For longer storage, you can freeze these biscuits. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be kept frozen for up to 2-3 months.
To reheat, place frozen or refrigerated biscuits on a baking sheet and reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes. For a quicker option, microwave individual biscuits on a plate for 20-30 seconds.
