Almond Flour Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits
These savory Almond Flour Jalapeño Cheddar Biscuits make a flavorful addition to any meal! Enjoy them for breakfast or as a side dish.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter unsalted (melted and cooled so not too hot)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tbsp finely chopped fresh jalapeno peppers seeded
- 1/8 tsp white pepper
- 2 1/4 cups almond flour finely ground
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Whisk together melted butter, eggs, milk, jalapenos and white pepper in a mixing bowl.
- Combine almond flour, salt and baking soda in a separate mixing bowl.
- Whisk the flour mixture into the butter mixture.
- Fold in cheddar cheese.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop biscuit dough onto baking sheet (I recommend a #20 or #24 disher).
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until biscuits are set and tops are golden brown.
Notes
- Use Finely Ground Almond Flour: Make sure your almond flour is finely ground for a smoother texture. Coarser almond meal can make the biscuits grainy.
- Chill the Dough if Needed: If your dough feels too sticky, pop it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. This will make it easier to scoop and shape without sticking to your hands or cookie scoop.
- Adjust for Spice: If you’re sensitive to heat, reduce the amount of jalapeño or swap for a milder pepper like a poblano.
- Watch the Bake Time: Keep an eye on the biscuits around the 15-minute mark to avoid overbaking. They should be golden on top and just set—baking too long can make them dry.
