Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour (or oat flour)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Optional Add-Ins (choose 1–2)
- Cooked turkey sausage or bacon crumbles
- Chopped spinach or kale
- Green onions or red bell peppers
- Jalapeños for heat
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a muffin tin to prepare for baking the biscuits.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine almond or oat flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt thoroughly.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs briefly, then add Greek yogurt (or cottage cheese), olive oil (or melted butter), and shredded cheese, mixing until smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Stir in your choice of 1 to 2 optional add-ins like turkey sausage, spinach, or jalapeños for added flavor.
- Fill Muffin Tins: Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin cups, filling each about 3/4 full for best results.
- Bake Biscuits: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18–22 minutes until the tops turn golden brown and the centers are fully set.
- Cool and Store: Remove biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool completely before serving or storing. This helps ensure proper texture and preserves freshness.
Notes
- To Freeze: Wrap each cooled biscuit individually or place multiple biscuits in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
- Reheat from Frozen: Microwave each biscuit for 45–60 seconds or warm in a preheated oven at 300°F for 10–12 minutes until heated through.
- Store in Fridge: Keep the biscuits fresh up to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Flavor Combos to Try: Classic (cheddar, bacon, green onion), Veggie Boost (spinach, feta, garlic), or Southwest (cheddar, turkey sausage, jalapeños).
