Why These Biscuits Are a Keto Dream

But that doesn’t mean you have to say goodbye to comfort food. With a few low-carb swaps, you can enjoy fluffy, satisfying biscuits that won’t spike your blood sugar.

These sausage and cheese biscuits are:

  • Low-carb and keto-friendly
  • Loaded with protein and healthy fats
  • Meal prep-friendly and freezer-safe
  • Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or even a quick lunch
  • Customizable with your favorite add-ins and spices

So, grab your mixing bowl and let’s bake a batch!


 

Ingredients You’ll Need:

These ingredients are simple and easy to find, especially if you already keep a keto pantry:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional but adds flavor)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage (crumbled or chopped finely)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Ingredient Tips:

  • Almond Flour: Be sure to use super-fine almond flour for the best texture. Avoid almond meal, which is more coarse.
  • Cheddar Cheese: Sharp cheddar gives a nice tang, but feel free to try other cheeses like Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or a blend.
  • Sausage: Use your favorite keto-friendly breakfast sausage. Just make sure there are no hidden sugars or fillers.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Cook the Sausage: If your sausage isn’t already cooked, start by browning it in a skillet over medium heat. Break it into small crumbles and cook until nicely browned. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the Cheese and Sausage: Stir in the shredded cheese and crumbled sausage. Make sure they’re evenly distributed.
  5. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the melted butter.
  6. Combine Everything: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick dough forms. It should be soft but not too wet.
  7. Shape the Biscuits: Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded mounds of dough onto your prepared baking sheet. You should get about 8 small biscuits.
  8. Bake: Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers are set. Ovens may vary, so keep an eye on them!
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the biscuits cool for 5 minutes before enjoying. They’re delicious warm, but also hold up well after refrigeration.

Storage and Reheating Tips

These biscuits keep well, making them ideal for busy weekday breakfasts.

  • Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Wrap them individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave or toaster oven.

To reheat from frozen, simply microwave for 30-45 seconds or until warmed through. You can also toast them lightly for a crispier texture.


Variations and Add-Ins

Want to spice things up? Here are some fun ways to customize your keto sausage and cheese biscuits:

  • Add jalapeños for a spicy kick
  • Use Italian sausage and mozzarella for a pizza-inspired version
  • Add herbs like chives, thyme, or parsley
  • Top with extra cheese before baking for a cheesy crust
  • Make them mini for a party-friendly finger food

These little tweaks help keep your keto meals exciting and prevent boredom.


Delicious Ways to Serve Them

These biscuits are versatile, so don’t limit them to just breakfast. Here are some fun serving ideas:

  • With a fried egg tucked in the middle for a biscuit sandwich
  • Alongside a creamy soup for a warm, comforting meal
  • Topped with avocado slices and hot sauce for a nutrient boost
  • With a keto-friendly gravy for the ultimate southern-style breakfast
