keto butter swim biscuits
Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes Recipe Intensity: Easy
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for savory biscuits)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- Optional: chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or rosemary)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder (if using), and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, and sour cream or Greek yogurt. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick batter forms.
- Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and chopped fresh herbs (if using), distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
- Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop dollops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.
- With the back of a spoon or spatula, gently flatten and spread out each dollop of batter to form biscuit shapes. The biscuits will spread slightly during baking, so leave some space between them.
- Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve the Keto Butter Swim Biscuits warm as a delicious low-carb side dish or snack.
Note: These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat them briefly in the oven or microwave before serving.
