Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Butter, unsalted and melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 pound Sausage, ground (zero carb)
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat together the melted butter, eggs, and heavy cream until well combined.
Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Scoop the dough using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop and place onto the prepared baking sheet, forming about 6-8 biscuits.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the gravy. In a large skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the cream cheese to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until melted and combined with the sausage.
Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the skillet, whisking quickly to thicken the gravy.
Season the gravy with black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Simmer the gravy for a few more minutes until thickened to your liking.
Serve the warm biscuits topped with the sausage gravy.
