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
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 450°F and lightly grease the muffin cavities of a 12-cup muffin pan to prevent sticking.
- 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 small bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and melted unsalted butter until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the large bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix with a whisk or spoon until the batter is evenly mixed; it will be quite thick.
- Add Cheese: Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Scoop Batter: Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter and place it into each muffin mold. The batter is sticky, so use a spatula to scrape the batter from the measuring cup completely. Continue it until all batter is used.
- Bake Biscuits: Bake the biscuits for about 10-11 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly in the pan before removing and serving. Enjoy warm for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use a muffin pan to keep the batter contained; free-form baking on a sheet will cause the biscuits to spread too much.
- Full fat sour cream is key to achieving tender, fluffy biscuits, but you can substitute with cream cheese or plain Greek yogurt if needed.
- For variations, add fresh or dried herbs such as rosemary, chives, thyme, or parsley to the batter for extra flavor.
- Cheddar cheese can be swapped with other cheeses like mozzarella or parmesan to customize taste.
