Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, chilled and solidified
- 0.75 cup coconut milk
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt until well combined.
In a small bowl, stir together the coconut milk and apple cider vinegar and let it sit for a few minutes to create a paleo-friendly 'buttermilk'.
Add the chilled coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut the coconut oil into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Whisk the egg and honey into the 'buttermilk' mixture.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until a soft dough forms.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of dough onto the prepared baking sheet for each biscuit, leaving a couple of inches between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
