Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (192 grams) almond flour, finely ground
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (gluten-free if preferred)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons (85 grams) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 4 ounces (115 grams) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream
  • Optional: garlic powder or fresh herbs (like rosemary) for a savory twist

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Add cold, cubed butter to the dry mix. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the almond flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Mix in softened cream cheese until the dough starts to come together.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat eggs and stir in heavy cream. Add optional garlic powder or herbs if desired.
  6. Pour the wet mixture into the almond flour mixture and gently fold together until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  7. On a lightly floured surface (almond or coconut flour), pat dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
  8. Use a 2-inch round biscuit cutter or glass dipped in almond flour to cut out biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting.
  9. Place biscuits about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Gather scraps and cut more biscuits.
  10. Bake for 18-22 minutes until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  11. Let biscuits rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.

Notes

Keep butter cold to achieve flaky layers. Do not overmix the dough to avoid toughness. Press biscuit cutter straight down without twisting to help biscuits rise. If biscuits are too crumbly, add an extra tablespoon of heavy cream next time. Tent with foil if browning too fast. Dough will be slightly sticky, which is normal.
