Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Sea salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 large Egg (whisked)
- 1/3 cup Heavy cream
- 1/3 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
Topping
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp Sea salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the biscuits.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and sea salt, ensuring they are well incorporated.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the whisked egg, heavy cream, and melted butter until the mixture is uniform and combined. Then fold in the shredded cheddar cheese evenly throughout the dough.
- Shape the Biscuits: Using a scant large cookie scoop, place dollops of the dough onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. Form each scoop into rounded biscuit shapes by slightly flattening them with your fingers, keeping a rustic look without over-shaping.
- Bake: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-16 minutes until they are semi-firm and golden brown on top.
- Prepare and Apply Topping: Allow the biscuits to cool undisturbed on the baking sheet for 10 minutes to firm up. Meanwhile, stir together the melted butter, chopped parsley, garlic powder, and sea salt to make the topping. Brush this garlicky butter mixture generously over the warm biscuits before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the dough is not overmixed to maintain the biscuit’s fluffy texture.
- Use freshly shredded cheddar cheese for best melting and flavor.
- Letting the biscuits cool before applying the topping helps them stay firm and absorb the butter topping better.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat in an oven for best texture.
