These Keto Three Cheese Biscuits combine the flavors of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan to create a warm, savory biscuit with a golden-brown crust. Made with almond flour, they’re low in carbs but packed with flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup melted butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option)
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder (if using), and salt.
Step 3: Add Cheeses
- Add Cheeses: Stir in the shredded cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses until evenly distributed.
Step 4: Add Wet Ingredients
- Whisk Eggs and Butter: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted butter until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the egg mixture into the almond flour mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms.
Step 5: Shape and Bake
- Portion Dough: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently shape each portion into a round biscuit shape, about 1 inch thick.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
- Add Fresh Parsley: Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, for a pop of color and flavor.
- Serve Warm: Enjoy these biscuits fresh out of the oven or let them cool slightly before serving.
Tips for the Best Keto Three Cheese Biscuits
- Choose Your Cheeses: Swap one of the cheeses for a different variety like Gouda or pepper jack for a new flavor profile.
- Shape Carefully: Since keto biscuits don’t rise as much as traditional ones, shape them to your desired final thickness.
- Make Them Fluffy: For a lighter biscuit, add a pinch of baking soda in addition to the baking powder.
- Storage: These biscuits can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in a 300°F oven until warmed through.
