Plus, they’re endlessly customizable and can be used in a ton of different ways.

I’ll get into that in a bit.

But first, let’s dive into the recipe!

How to Make the Best Keto Biscuits

Like I’ve said, these low carb butter & cheese biscuits are ready in under half an hour.

You can throw them together on a lazy Sunday morning and have delicious keto biscuits on hand for the rest of the week.

Incredibly easy, time-saving, and satisfying – is there anything these almond flour biscuits can’t do?!

The Ingredients

So, to make the homemade keto biscuits, you’ll need:

• Blanched Almond Flour
• Baking Powder
• Full-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
• 2 Large Eggs
• Sour Cream
• Unsalted Butter (if you use salted the biscuits will be salty)

Pretty simple stuff, right?!

You might be surprised by how crazy good these low carb biscuits turn out with just a few basic ingredients.

Trust me; they are seriously fantastic.

The butter, mozzarella cheese, and sour cream add a ton of richness, savoriness, and just the right amount of tanginess to balance out all those flavors.

Meanwhile, the almond flour, eggs, and baking powder give you that perfect biscuit texture that’s oh so satisfying to bite into.

Seriously, what more could you ask for?

Low Carb Flours for the Keto Biscuit

So as the recipe name states, these low carb biscuits are made using blanched almond flour. And, honestly, this is one of the best keto almond flour recipes there is.

Now, if you don’t already have almond flour in your pantry, you’ll want to pick up a bag ASAP. It’s a quintessential keto pantry staple and the foundation of a lot of my favorite keto recipes!

That being said, if you don’t have any blanched almond flour available, the best substitutes are sunflower seed flour and walnut flour. You can sub them in at 1:1 ratio, no problem.

What you don’t want to use, though, is coconut flour. I’ve said it time and time again, but it’s a pro tip that bears repeating – especially if you’re just starting to make keto recipes. Coconut flour is extremely absorbent and will yield some totally unsatisfying, dry, and powdery results if you use it as a substitute.

That is, if anything even turns out at all – you might just end up with a pile of crumbled dough.

So to sum up:

• Almond flour, walnut flour, sunflower seed flour = it’s a go!
• Coconut flour = it’s a no.

Step-By-Step Instructions

As I’ve mentioned before, this whole recipe is pretty straightforward.

You’ll want to start by preheating your oven to 450° F (232°C), so it’s ready once we finish the batter.

Oh, and by the way, if you only have a microwave, you can still make keto biscuits! I have a fantastic 3-minute low carb biscuit recipe on my blog.

Or, you can even try making both of my keto biscuit recipes and see which one you like best!

Anyway, the next thing you want to do is pulse your almond flour, baking powder, and mozzarella in a food processor.

What you’re looking for is a fine flour-like consistency. Once you’ve achieved that, you can set it aside.

Next, mix the wet ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until well-combined. Then, pour the dry ingredients in and mix until a thick batter forms.

Now, unlike the “regular” kind of biscuits, these low carb biscuits start as a liquid batter instead of a dry dough, so we’ll be baking our biscuits in a muffin tray instead of on a baking sheet.

To do that, spray a non-stick baking spray into the slots of your muffin tray then spoon the batter into each slot, filling each one three-quarters of the way full.

The pro-tip here is to spray and fill the slots one at a time just before adding the batter to prevent everything from sticking to the slots/liners.

Then, once you've sufficiently added the batter, you’ll then want to bake them for 10 minutes – yup, literally just 10 minutes – and set them aside to cool down to room temperature.

To remove them from the tray, take a thin knife, and run it around the edges of each slot to loosen the biscuit and slide it out. However, if you're using paper liners you won't have to worry about doing this.

And there you have it – warm, fluffy, savory cheese & butter almond flour biscuits, ready in 20 minutes!

Customize Your Keto Biscuits

So once you’ve got this recipe down pat, you can jazz it up any way you want.

Incorporate a mix of different cheeses, add some of your favorite herbs, or dress it up after baking with a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of flaky sea salt. Yum yum yum!

You can even make some cheesy keto biscuits à la Red Lobster by adding some cheddar, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to the batter.

The possibilities are endless – and endlessly delicious!

What to Eat with Keto Biscuits

Obviously, these are wonderful on their own or with a pat of salted butter melted on top, but there are also a TON of ways you can use these keto biscuits to take your other meals to the next level.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Serve with scrambled eggs, keto chicken sausage, and coffee for a classic diner-style breakfast
• Slice into halves to make mini keto sandwich buns
• Dip into soup for a super comforting and hearty dinner – try it with this keto broccoli cheese soup for the ultimate cheesy overload!

How To Store These Keto Biscuits

Ok, so you've made them, and you love them!

But, this recipe makes 9 muffins, and you've got some leftover.

So, to store them, I recommend just covering them in the pan with some tinfoil. I don't ever refrigerate mine, but I'm sure you can if you want to.

With that said, these keto biscuits will stay good for up to a week if you store them this way.
