Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 6 slices smoked turkey bacon
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup shredded plant-based cheese
- 1 teaspoon natural baking powder
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup plant-based cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Bacon: Cook the smoked turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain excess fat on paper towels and chop into bite-sized pieces to add smoky flavor throughout your biscuit batter.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, natural baking powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and the natural gelling agent. Whisk gently to evenly distribute all powders and aerate the flour for a light biscuit texture.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the plant-based cream until smooth and slightly frothy. This mixture binds and adds moisture to the dough.
- Bring It All Together: Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring carefully to avoid overmixing. Add the chopped smoked turkey bacon and shredded plant-based cheese last, folding gently to maintain pockets of melted cheese.
- Shape and Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray and spoon the batter into small biscuit rounds. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden on top and firm to touch. Let cool slightly before serving for best texture.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for smooth batter and even rising.
- Stir just until ingredients are combined to keep biscuits tender and light.
- Check oven temperature for consistent baking results.
- Add cheese last to create delightful melted pockets inside the biscuits.
- Try different shapes: mini biscuits for snacks or larger for sandwiches.
