Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup superfine almond flour 4 ounces
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder gluten-free if needed

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, sour cream, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
  3. Using a rubber spatula, mix in the almond flour, Parmesan, and baking powder.
  4. Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, place 6 mounds of the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Do not flatten the mounds.
  5. Bake until golden, 15-18 minutes.
  6. Serve warm, topped with butter.

Notes

  • To achieve a light and airy texture, make sure to use blanched, finely ground almond flour. A coarse almond meal won't work in this recipe.
  • I tried replacing the sour cream with whole-milk Greek yogurt. Sour cream is better in terms of texture and flavor.
  • Instead of the grated parmesan, you can use ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese. It's best to use finely shredded cheese.
  • It's best to enjoy these biscuits freshly baked. If you have any leftovers, it's best to freeze them (once completely cooled) in freezer bags. To defrost, microwave them for 5-10 seconds per side.
