Light, flaky buttery goodness to comfort the soul.
Ingredients
  • 2½ cups of blanched almond flour
  • ¾ cups of arrowroot
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • ½ teaspoon of baking soda
  • 4 Tablespoons of cold unsalted butter, duck fat or lard (if using duck fat or lard, pop it in the freezer for 10 minutes to get it very cold)
  • 2 Tablespoons of honey
  • 2 large eggs
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper,.
  2. In a large mixing bowl combine arrowroot, almond flour, salt and baking soda and stir with a whisk to combine.
  3. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter or two knives. You want it to resemble coarse crumbs. Here’s a video on how to do this.
  4. In a small bowl, beat the honey and eggs together and add to the dry ingredients.
  5. Stir to combine.
  6. Drop the batter onto the baking sheet with a large spoon. (It was challenging for me to use a spoon because of the dense texture of the batter, so I used this ice cream scoop to make 12 effortless biscuit rounds.
  7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown.
