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

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.
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.
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.
Add Cheese: Gently fold the shredded cheddar cheese into the dough, making sure it’s evenly mixed but without overworking the batter, preserving fluffiness.
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.
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.
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.
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.
