Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits Recipe

Introduction

These Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits are fluffy, cheesy, and perfect for anyone following a low-carb lifestyle. With a rich garlic butter topping, they make a comforting and flavorful snack or side dish.

Four golden brown baked cheese puffs sit in a dark metal muffin tray placed on a white marbled surface. Each puff has fluffy, crispy layers with a light golden crust on the outside and a soft, white center. Thin strands of melted orange cheese are lightly spread on top of the puffs, adding a textured and slightly gooey look. The puffs appear uneven and airy, showing folds and peaks where the dough has puffed unevenly in the baking process. The contrast between the golden edges and the white soft parts inside makes them look fresh and inviting. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.33 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (for topping)
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder (for topping)
  • 0.5 tsp dried parsley (optional, for topping)
  • 1 pinch salt (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a muffin tin or line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Step 3: Add the eggs, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until a thick dough forms.
  4. Step 4: Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, making sure it is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  5. Step 5: Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto your prepared baking sheet or muffin tin, spacing them evenly.
  6. Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed up.
  7. Step 7: While the biscuits are baking, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, dried parsley (if using), and a pinch of salt for the topping.
  8. Step 8: As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, brush the garlic butter mixture generously on top. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangier flavor and a bit more protein.
  • For extra cheesiness, sprinkle a little more shredded cheddar on top before baking.
  • Add chopped fresh herbs like chives or rosemary to the dough for an herbal twist.
  • If you prefer spicy, mix in a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the dough.

Storage

Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, warm them in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5–7 minutes or until heated through. Avoid microwaving to keep them fluffy.

How to Serve

Four golden brown baked puffs sit in a metal muffin tray, each with a crispy, flaky outer layer with uneven peaks and light browning on the edges. The tops reveal a white, fluffy inside, with melted yellow cheese scattered softly on top and throughout the puffs, creating a mix of creamy and crispy textures. The muffin tray is dark and slightly shiny, showing some baked-on marks from previous use. The background is replaced with a white marbled texture. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of almond flour?

This recipe is designed for almond flour to keep it low-carb. Using regular flour will change the texture and carb content significantly.

Can I make these biscuits dairy-free?

You can substitute the butter with coconut oil and use a dairy-free yogurt alternative, but the texture and taste will be a bit different.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.33 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 4 tbsp melted butter

Main Flavor

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Topping

  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp dried parsley (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare your baking surface by greasing a muffin tin or lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening and seasoning.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In the same bowl, add the eggs, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), and 4 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir everything together until a thick dough forms, which will be slightly sticky but manageable.
  4. Add Cheese: Gently fold the shredded cheddar cheese into the dough, making sure it’s evenly mixed but without overworking the batter, preserving fluffiness.
  5. Shape Biscuits: Use a spoon to drop dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet or into the muffin tin. Space them to allow room for rising during baking.
  6. Bake: Place the biscuits in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until they are golden brown on the outside and puffed up.
  7. Prepare Garlic Butter Topping: While the biscuits bake, combine melted butter, garlic powder, dried parsley (if using), and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Stir well to create the garlic butter mixture.
  8. Brush Biscuits: As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven and are still hot, generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the tops. Let them cool slightly before serving to allow the topping to set and flavors to meld.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream depending on preference or availability, both provide moisture and tang.
  • Make sure not to overmix the dough to maintain biscuit fluffiness.
  • The garlic butter topping is optional but highly recommended for additional flavor.
  • For a dairy-free version, use a suitable butter alternative and skip the cheese or replace with a dairy-free option.
  • Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat before serving.
