Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cups coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup butter, cold and cubed
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, large egg, and apple cider vinegar.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, being careful not to over-mix the dough.
Scoop out about 1/4 cup of the dough and form it into a biscuit shape. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, ensuring there is enough space between each biscuit.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
