Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup ghee
- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 large egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, mix the coconut milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a couple of minutes to create a buttermilk-like mixture.
Cut the cold ghee into small pieces and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or fork to blend the ghee into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Beat the egg and add it to the bowl along with the coconut milk mixture. Stir until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the dough and form it into a biscuit shape using your hands, then place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat for the remaining dough, spacing the biscuits about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
