Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup unflavored whey protein isolate powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
  3. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg and heavy cream together. Add the psyllium husk powder and mix well.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix just until a shaggy dough forms. Do not overmix.
  7. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 8 biscuits. Lightly flatten the tops with your hand.
  8. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a savory variation, add 1 teaspoon of dried chives to the dry ingredients.
  • These keto biscuit recipe items freeze well; cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to one month.
  • If you prefer a slightly softer texture, reduce the heavy cream by one tablespoon.
