Does anyone have any low-carb biscuit recipes?

Question

I would like a low-carb (not gluten free) biscuit recipe, with a maximum of 10g carbohydrates per 100g. Suitable for people on Tony Ferguson / Aitkins diet (low-carb and high protein). The packet mixtures I have seen contain mainly almond meal & coconut, but are quite expensive.

Roll the dough and cut the biscuits about 1/2 inch thick.

Bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes (oven variation)**I use a cast iron biscuit skillet.

Cream Cheese Biscuits Recipe (Total Carbs = 8.1g)



45 min | 25 min prep

12 biscuits. Can be fro

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter

1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Sift together the flour and salt. Add the butter, piece by piece, and the cream cheese. Mix until you have a dough that holds together.

Do not overmix.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and, with a rolling pin, roll it out to a thickness of about 1/2".

Cut out rounds with a biscuit cutter and place on a lightly buttered baking sheet. Bake until pale brown, about 20 minutes.

Serve warm.

Answer 2

No JOKE about how it expensive it is. Your best bet is to buy some CARBQUICK , it isnt too costly and the recipe is on the box. Lots of recipes for it online.
