Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups blanched almond flour
- 1/2 tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 4 tbsp butter
- 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking the biscuits.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly mix the almond flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly blended.
- Melt Butter: Place the butter in an oven-safe dish and melt it in the preheating oven. Keep an eye on it as melting happens quickly to avoid burning.
- Mix Cream Cheese and Butter: Remove the butter from the oven once melted and add the softened cream cheese. Mix with a fork until the mixture is smooth and creamy, then set aside.
- Beat Eggs: In a separate small bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Combine All Ingredients: Add the beaten eggs to the bowl with dry ingredients. Then add the butter and cream cheese mixture. Stir everything together until you get a uniform batter.
- Portion the Dough: Use a cookie scoop or large tablespoon to drop equal portions of the mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the biscuits turn golden brown and are cooked through.
Notes
- Use room temperature cream cheese for easier mixing.
- Ensure almond flour is finely ground for best texture.
- Check biscuits early if your oven runs hot to avoid over-baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute butter and cream cheese with suitable dairy-free alternatives.
