Almond Flour Cheese Biscuits

Tender and flavorful almond flour keto cheese biscuits are great for breakfast (with or without eggs) or for dinner. Perfect with chili!

These almond flour keto cheese biscuits are low in carbs, but they are not low on flavor! They have an amazingly tender and fluffy crumb and a crispy exterior. They are tender and cheesy, with a pleasant subtle kick from the cayenne.

How to make keto cheese biscuits

It’s so easy! Scroll down to the recipe card for the detailed instructions. Here are the basic steps:

1. You simply mix together an egg, sour cream, spices, almond flour, cheese, and baking powder.
2. Drop mounds of the batter on a baking sheet.
3. Then bake for 15 minutes. Easy and delicious!

What to serve with them?

I love serving them with dinner. They can easily replace dinner rolls. I like to serve them with chili, or with my easy tomato soup.

They are also excellent for breakfast, with or without eggs. And I often grab one for a quick, filling snack.

Is this a healthy recipe?

I believe it is. It’s probably an improvement over refined flour biscuits. In addition, the main ingredients in this recipe are good for you.

Almond flour is very healthy, eggs are nutritious, and current research tells us that full-fat dairy products are harmless and might even be beneficial.

What to do with leftovers of these keto cheese biscuits?

It’s best to enjoy them freshly baked – they’re best when they are still warm and very fresh.

If you have any leftovers, it’s best to freeze them (once completely cooled) in Ziploc bags. To defrost, simply microwave for 10 seconds per side. When warmed up this way, they are very good.

I actually like to double the recipe and make 12 at a time. I freeze the leftovers and enjoy a couple of them for breakfast each morning until they’re all gone.
