Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups superfine almond flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp aluminum free baking powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Additional
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven Preheat your oven to 450°F. Lightly grease the cavities of a 12-cup muffin pan to prepare for baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients In a large bowl, whisk together the superfine almond flour, salt, aluminum free baking powder, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients In a separate small bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and melted butter until smooth and well incorporated.
- Combine Batter Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix using a whisk or spoon until the batter is thick and evenly mixed. Then, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese thoroughly.
- Fill Muffin Pan Using a ¼ cup measure, scoop the thick batter into each muffin cavity. The batter will be sticky, so use a spatula to scrape all batter from the measuring cup to ensure even portions. Repeat until all batter is used.
- Bake Biscuits Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 11 minutes or until the biscuit tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool slightly in the pan before removing and serving.
Notes
- Baking these biscuits in a muffin pan helps maintain their shape; baking freeform on a baking sheet will cause them to spread too much due to the batter's consistency.
- Full-fat sour cream is ideal to achieve a tender and fluffy texture. If unavailable, substitute with cream cheese or plain Greek yogurt for similar results.
- You can customize these savory cheese biscuits by adding fresh or dried herbs such as rosemary, chives, thyme, or parsley to the batter.
- Different cheeses can be substituted for cheddar to vary the flavor, such as mozzarella, gouda, or parmesan.
