These Almond Flour Biscuits are light, buttery, and so easy to make! Whether you’re looking for a gluten-free alternative, following a low-carb/keto diet, or just love almond flour’s nutty richness, these biscuits are perfect. They’re soft on the inside, slightly crispy on the outside, and pair wonderfully with butter, jam, or even savory toppings like eggs and cheese!
Best of all? You only need one bowl and 20 minutes to make them! Let’s get baking.
What You’ll Need
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond flour (finely ground)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter or coconut oil, melted
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream (for moisture)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (helps with fluffiness)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for a savory version)
Pro Tips for Perfect Almond Flour Biscuits
- Use Finely Ground Almond Flour – This makes the biscuits lighter and fluffier. Avoid almond meal, which is coarser.
- Don’t Overmix! – Stir the dough until just combined to keep the biscuits tender.
- Use Cold Butter for Flakier Biscuits – If you want a more traditional biscuit texture, use cold butter and cut it into the flour.
- Let the Dough Rest – Allow the dough to sit for 5 minutes before shaping; this helps absorb moisture.
- Make It Savory or Sweet – Add cheddar cheese & herbs for a savory version or honey & cinnamon for a sweet one!
Tools You’ll Need
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk or spoon
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Ice cream scoop or spoon (for shaping)
Substitutions & Variations
- Dairy-Free? Use coconut oil & dairy-free yogurt.
- Keto-Friendly? Swap Greek yogurt for full-fat sour cream.
- Nut-Free? Use sunflower seed flour instead of almond flour.
- Cheesy Biscuits? Stir in ½ cup shredded cheddar before baking.
- Sweeter? Add 1 tablespoon honey and ½ teaspoon cinnamon.
Make-Ahead Tips
- Make Ahead: The dough can be prepared up to a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
- Freeze Unbaked Biscuits: Shape the dough into biscuits, freeze on a tray, then transfer to a bag. Bake straight from frozen at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes.
