As someone who avoids wheat, I give you this simple recipe for almond flour biscuits, made extra savory with our Greek Seasoning. You may be thinking almond flour biscuits must taste like hockey pucks, but I assure you that is not the case. These are light and delicate, and delicious.
The almond flour you choose can affect the end product, so let’s take a quick run-thru of what you might find on your grocery store shelves. First, there are blanched and unblanched almond flours. The blanched variety is made from almonds after their skins are removed. Likewise, the unblanched almond flour has bits of the brown skin in it. I like to think of it as just a little extra fiber. There is also almond meal, which is just another name for unblanched almond flour.
For this recipe I used Bob’s Red Mill Super Fine Natural (Unblanched) Almond Flour. I find the super-fine grind helps lighten up the dough in this and other recipes.
This biscuit dough seems soft and a little sticky at first. Using a cookie dough scoop helps to both measure the dough into equal sized biscuits and creates mounds of dough that can easily be pressed with the fingers to the perfect biscuit size.
If you make biscuits using wheat flour or a gluten-free flour blend, simply add one teaspoon Greek Girls Gourmet All Purpose Greek Seasoning for every one cup of flour (or baking mix) in your biscuit recipe. Be sure to make the savory butter to brush the tops of your biscuits with another layer of flavor!
