Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, cold
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Using your hands, scoop about 1/4 cup of dough at a time and form into a small ball. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches between each biscuit.
Gently flatten each ball slightly with your hand to form a biscuit shape.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm and enjoy your fluffy, low carb buttermilk biscuits!
