This keto biscuit manages to be tender, and a little flaky, with a nice chew to it due to the addition of the shredded cheddar. My son LOVES cheesy garlic biscuits of the glutenous variety, he loved this recipe, and I think you will too!

How to Make These Biscuits

The most crucial part of preparing this biscuit recipe is to chill out! That is to say, keep all of your ingredients cold, use really cold butter, and chill the dough before baking. This is the same process I use when making my Keto Scones, and it is such an important step! For a complete set of instructions on this whole process see the recipe card below.

The cold butter in a biscuit contributes to the rise and the texture of this baked good by melting and releasing steam during baking. If the butter is too warm and incorporated into the dry ingredients there will be no pockets of butter and steam.

Another key aspect of this recipe is the binders. I wanted a sturdy enough biscuit that I could use them to make breakfast sandwiches. Often gluten-free baked goods are very delicate because they lack the glutenous proteins that bind them together. Cue the xanthan gum and ground psyllium husk! I doubled down on binders to ensure that my sammys could keep it together!

One last note, Sift your dry ingredients! This ensures that there are no lumps in your flour alternatives and allows your salt, baking powder, xanthan gum, and psyllium husk powder to get more evenly distributed.
