Ingredients
2 cups blanched almond flour3 T. cold butter, diced1 egg1 c. sharp cheddar cheese, divided1/4 to 1/2 t. salt, or to taste2 t. baking powder1/2 c. heavy cream
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking pan or line with non-stick foil or parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, add almond flour, butter, egg, 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, salt, baking powder; cut in with a pastry cutter/dough blender until crumbly and all flour is slightly moistened and cheese is pulverized into the mixture. Stir in cream and remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese; mix in lightly. Divide and roll dough into 10 to 12 balls (I make 10) and place on a lined cookie sheet; do not flatten dough balls (this will result in a thicker biscuit). Bake at 350 degrees F for approximately 18-20 minutes or until light golden brown; be careful not to overcook. Remove from oven; brush tops with melted butter, if desired.
