Almond Flour Biscuits

Almond Flour Biscuits combine ground almonds with eggs, melted butter, baking powder, and optional salt to create tender, lightly browned biscuits with a delicate crumb. The gluten-free dough is shaped by hand into disks and baked, resulting in a soft yet firm texture once cooled. These biscuits offer a nutty flavor and a satisfying alternative to traditional wheat-based biscuits.

Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups ground almonds 250g, Use 2 ¼ cup or 225 grams if using super-fine almond flour, or almond meal
  • 2 egg large
  • 5 tablespoon butter 70g, melted
  • 1 ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit electric or 160C / 320 fan.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl - almond flour, baking powder and salt, if using.
  3. Whisk the eggs and stir in the melted butter. Then add to the dry ingredients and combine into a dough with a fork.
  4. With your hands, roll balls of circa 30 grams each. Flatten into a disk with a thickness of about 1 inch and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake for around 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Notes

  • The biscuits contain approximately 7 grams of net carbohydrates each and yield about 12 pieces.
  • Handle biscuits carefully when hot, as they are fragile due to the absence of gluten.
  • Allow biscuits to fully cool on a wire rack to firm up before storing or serving.
