Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon natural baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
Optional Add-ins
- 1/4 cup shredded plant-based cheese
- Your choice of herbs like rosemary, thyme, or chives (fresh, chopped)
- Crushed red pepper flakes or smoked paprika
- Pinch of cinnamon and natural sweetener of choice
- Flaxseeds, chia seeds, or sunflower seeds
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with coconut oil to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, natural baking powder, and sea salt until thoroughly blended for an even texture.
- Blend Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) until fully combined.
- Combine and Form Dough: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until a slightly sticky but firm dough forms. Fold in plant-based cheese or any other add-ins if using.
- Shape the Biscuits: Using a spoon or your hands, form small round biscuits about 2-3 inches wide. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake Until Golden: Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Measure almond and coconut flours accurately using a kitchen scale for best results.
- Stir dough just until combined to keep biscuits tender and avoid toughness.
- Use room temperature eggs to help mixture blend evenly.
- Let the dough rest for 5 minutes before shaping to allow better hydration.
- Verify oven temperature with a thermometer for consistent baking.
