    Biscuit perfection! These homemade, keto savory cheddar biscuits are far easier than you can imagine.

    Keto cheddar biscuits fresh out of the oven served on a white plate

    They turn out perfectly golden, crispy outside and melt-in-your-mouth tender inside.

    Choose a mature cheddar cheese for that extra sharp taste or a fresh type of cheese for a milder version.

    Why You'll Love Low Carb Cheddar Biscuits

    • Only 1 gram net carbs in each biscuit!!
    • On the table in just 25 minutes with 10 minutes prep
    • Only requires 7 simple ingredients

    Keto Cheddar Biscuits Ingredients

    These low carb cheddar biscuits couldn't be easier to make! You'll only need 7 key ingredients.

    Ingredients arranged on a table to make keto cheddar biscuits including eggs, cheddar cheese, butter and almond flour
    • Almond flour - we'll use almond flour for our biscuits to help keep the carbs down.
    • Butter - you'll need both cold butter diced into cubes and melted butter for this recipe.
    • Xanthan gum - xanthan gum helps to provide elasticity and stickiness to our biscuit dough.
    • Garlic powder - we'll use garlic powder in both the cheddar biscuit dough and the coating we make to brush on top of each biscuit.
    • Baking soda - helps to give a lightness to the dough and makes the biscuits rise with a more fluffy crumb.
    • Cheddar cheese - use a more mature cheddar cheese if you prefer a sharper taste, or a fresh cheddar for a more mild taste.
    • Eggs - room temperature eggs that have been beaten.

    How To Make Keto Cheddar Biscuits

    Step 1

    To get started, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with baking paper.

    Step 2

    Take a mixing bowl and combine the almond flour, xanthan gum, garlic powder, baking soda and a pinch of sea salt.

    Step 3

    Combining the almond flour, xanthan gum, garlic powder, baking soda, salt, cheddar cheese and whisked eggs to make a keto cheddar biscuit dough

    Next, add the shredded cheddar cheese and whisked eggs. Mix everything together well until it reaches a dough consistency.

    Step 4

    Add the butter to the mixture and incorporate it into the dough using your fingers.

    Step 5

    Divide the dough into 12 pieces and then knead each piece into a ball. Arrange the balls on the lined baking sheet leaving enough room between each one to flatten and expand.

    Step 6

    Keto cheddar biscuit balls arranged on a lined baking sheet ready to bake

    Press each ball down with your hand to flatten slightly and then bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes.

    Step 7

    While the cheddar biscuits are baking we'll make the coating. Whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder and a pinch of salt.

    Step 8

    Brushing the keto cheddar biscuits with the garlic butter coating before returning to the oven until golden brown

    Once the biscuits have finished baking, brush each biscuit with the mixture and then return to the oven for a further 5 minutes until golden.

    Step 9

    Crispy golden keto cheddar biscuits with a melt in your mouth cheesy inside ready to enjoy

    Serve the keto cheddar biscuits hot or allow to cool to room temperature and store them in an air tight container.

    Storage Instructions

    In the fridge: Store any leftover keto cheddar biscuits in an air tight container in the refrigerator. You can reheat them in the microwave so they're warm and they'll keep for up to a week.

    In the freezer: You can prepare a large batch of these cheddar biscuits are freeze them as well. Store them in a freezer safe container and thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or pop them in the microwave when you're ready to eat them. They'll keep for up to 3 months in the freezer.
