Keto Cheddar Sausage Biscuits – Low-Carb, Cheesy, and Irresistible
Ingredients & Their Roles
- 2 oz cream cheese – Adds richness and binds the dough for a soft texture.
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese – Forms the base of the fathead dough.
- 2 large eggs – Binds ingredients and adds moisture.
- 1 cup almond flour – Provides structure and a subtle nuttiness.
- 2 oz thinly sliced cheddar cheese – Delivers bold, melty flavor.
- 6 cooked sausage patties – Adds protein and hearty, savory taste.
- Optional: Extra cheddar cheese – For topping and extra flavor.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Melt the cheese: Combine cream cheese and mozzarella in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
- Make the dough: Whisk eggs in a separate bowl. Stir in almond flour. Add melted cheese mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms. Wet hands to handle dough more easily.
- Shape and fill: Divide dough into 6 balls, flatten each, and place a sausage patty and slice of cheddar in the center. Wrap dough around filling and seal. Place seam-side down on tray.
- Bake: Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown. Optionally, sprinkle extra cheddar on top during the last 3 minutes for a cheesy finish.
