🍴Recipe Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- Almond Flour - I used Bob's Red Mill finely ground almond flour for this recipe! It's one of my favorites. (Doesn't leave a grainy texture.)
- Cassava Flour - I recommend using the flours I've chosen, if you skip the cassava flour it might be too sticky.
- Baking Soda
- Salt
Wet Ingredients
- Egg - Room Temperature
- Maple Syrup - Works best with maple syrup, but you can sub with coconut sugar.
- Melted Coconut Oil - I haven't tested with other oils.
- Lemon Zest - Make sure you wash your lemon thoroughly before zesting!
- Vanilla
Fold In
- Strawberries - Chopped into small bite size pieces.
🍴Recipe Instructions
Making the Biscuit Dough
- Start by adding you almond flour, cassava flour, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl. Use a whisk or fork to blend until fully combined.
- Next add your egg, melted coconut oil, vanilla, maple syrup, and lemon zest into a separate mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to blend until fully combined.
- Slowly start to add your dry mixture into your wet mixture. Blend until it's fully combined. It should be a thick and sticky consistency. If it's stuck in your blender, just fold the rest with a spatula or with your hands.
Chilling
- Chop your strawberries into small bite size pieces, and fold that into the batter. Once it's mixed up, place your dough into the fridge for 1 hour.
Baking
- Once it's chilled, separate it into 6 balls. Press the balls into round biscuits. (They won't expand too much in the oven.) Bake at 325 degrees for 18-20 minutes.
- Let cool for at least five minutes, then ENJOY!
How to store leftover Biscuits
If you have any leftovers, they can be stored at room temperature for a couple days in a glass container. They will store well in the refrigerator for about 7 days. You can also store them in an air tight glass container in the freezer. PRO TIP: Frozen desserts are actually really tasty!
