How to Make Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat the oven to 350 ℉ (180℃) and grease the muffin pan cavities of a 12-cup muffin pan.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together:
1. Almond flour
2. Sea salt
3. Baking powder
4. 1 tsp garlic powder
5. Optional xanthan gum

Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients

In a medium-sized bowl combine:
1. Eggs
2. Sour cream
3. 3 tbsp melted butter

Mix until smooth.

Step 4: Combine Mixtures

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until thoroughly combined. The mixture should form a thick sticky batter.

Step 5: Add Cheese

Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6: Scoop Batter into Muffin Pan

Using a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop, add about 3 tbsp of batter into each of the 9 muffin cups (some of the 12 cups will be empty). Use a spoon to spread and fill the muffin cups evenly.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for about 18-22 minutes or until tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 8: Prepare Garlic Butter Topping

Remove from oven. In a small bowl, dissolve and stir together:
1. ½ tsp garlic powder
2. 2 tbsp melted butter

Stir in chopped parsley.

Step 9: Brush with Garlic Butter

Brush the tops of the biscuits with garlic butter while they are still warm.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Making Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits can be delightful, but some common mistakes may ruin the experience.
