  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and sea salt.
  3. Stir in the  egg, heavy cream, and melted butter, until uniform. Fold in the shredded cheese.
  4. Use a scant large cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the lined baking sheet, at least 2 inches apart. (They will spread during baking.) Form into rounded biscuit shapes (flatten slightly with your fingers), but don’t shape much to keep them looking rustic.
  5. Bake for about 12-16 minutes, until semi-firm and golden.
  6. When the biscuits are done, let them cool for 10 minutes without moving, to firm up more. Stir together all the topping ingredients. then brush the biscuits with the melted butter topping.

KETO CHEDDAR BAY BISCUITS RECIPE

Keto Cheddar Bay Biscuits are a delightful low-carb adaptation of the popular cheesy biscuits often served at seafood restaurants. These savory biscuits, characterized by their fluffy texture and rich flavor, make an excellent side dish, snack, or even breakfast option. The keto version maintains the deliciousness of the original while eliminating the high-carb flour, making it perfect for those on a ketogenic diet or anyone looking to reduce their carbohydrate intake.

The allure of Cheddar Bay Biscuits lies in their savory, cheesy goodness, paired with the warmth of garlic and a hint of herbs. The combination of sharp cheddar cheese and garlic creates a comforting and flavorful experience in every bite. The keto-friendly version uses almond flour and a touch of coconut flour to achieve the perfect biscuit texture without the use of traditional wheat flour. These flours not only keep the biscuits low in carbs but also impart a subtle nutty flavor that complements the cheese and garlic beautifully.

One of the key challenges in creating keto baked goods is achieving the right texture. Traditional biscuits rely on gluten to provide structure and a tender crumb, but with keto-friendly ingredients, this can be tricky. In these Keto Cheddar Bay Biscuits, the combination of almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder helps create a light, airy texture. The addition of cream cheese and shredded cheddar not only adds richness and moisture but also helps bind the ingredients together, resulting in biscuits that are wonderfully fluffy and satisfying.

These biscuits are incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways. Serve them alongside your favorite keto soup or stew for a comforting meal, or pair them with eggs and bacon for a hearty breakfast. They also make a great snack, either on their own or with a dollop of keto-friendly butter or a smear of garlic herb butter. The biscuits can be customized with different types of cheese, such as mozzarella or Parmesan, or by adding herbs like parsley, dill, or chives for a burst of fresh flavor.

Making Keto Cheddar Bay Biscuits is simple and quick, requiring just a few basic ingredients and minimal preparation. The dough comes together easily in one bowl, and the biscuits bake up in under 20 minutes. This makes them an excellent option for a last-minute side dish or when you need a quick and tasty addition to your meal. They can also be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator or freezer, making them convenient for meal prep or a quick snack on busy days.

In conclusion, Keto Cheddar Bay Biscuits are a delicious and satisfying alternative to traditional biscuits, perfect for anyone following a low-carb or ketogenic diet. They offer all the cheesy, garlicky goodness of the original, with a fraction of the carbs. Whether you’re looking for a comforting side dish, a quick snack, or a versatile addition to your meal plan, these biscuits are sure to please. With their easy preparation and delightful flavor, they’re a must-try for anyone looking to enjoy a classic comfort food in a keto-friendly way.
