Keto Biscuits (Sugar Free, Low Carb, Cheesy)
Description
This recipe uses almond flour and baking powder as a base combined with beaten eggs to bind and melted butter for moisture. Grated mature or medium cheddar cheese is incorporated to introduce a rich, savory note that complements the biscuit's slightly crumbly dough. The mixture is processed briefly with a mixer to break down the cheese slightly and create a cohesive texture.
Balls of dough are shaped and flattened on parchment paper before baking at 350°F (180°C) for 22 to 25 minutes until the tops are browned. The biscuits develop a soft crumb with a delicate crust. Letting them cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing or handling prevents breakage common in almond flour baking.
They contain about 3 grams of net carbs each and suit sugar-free, low-carbohydrate diets. Stored properly in airtight containers, they remain fresh for several days at room temperature or up to a week refrigerated. Freezing extends storage up to three months while preserving quality.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups / 250g almond flour reduce by 2 tablespoons if using super-fine almond flour
- 2 egg beaten
- ¾ cup / 80g cheddar cheese mature or medium, grated
- 3 tbsp / 40g butter melted
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
- Mix the almond flour and the baking powder in a bowl.
- Add the beaten eggs, melted butter and grated cheese and blend using an electric mixer until you have a crumbly dough and the grated cheese is broken down into smaller pieces.
- Form 12 balls of 30g each and flatten onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Thickness is about 1 inch.
- Bake for around 22-25 minutes or until browned on top.
Notes
- Allow biscuits to cool 10-15 minutes before slicing or handling to prevent crumbling.
- Store airtight at room temperature for a few days or up to one week refrigerated.
- Freeze biscuits for up to three months to maintain freshness.
- Almond flour baked goods can be fragile when hot, handle with care until cooled.
