Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour, fine, blanched
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/3 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Garlic butter
- 1 tbsp butter, melted, to brush
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
Steps
- Heat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder and salt.
- Whisk the eggs, yogurt and melted butter, then stir into the dry ingredients with the cheddar until you have a thick, sticky dough.
- Drop 12 rough mounds on the tray, well apart because they spread, and bake 12-15 minutes, until golden and firm at the edges.
- Stir the melted butter, garlic powder and parsley together and brush over the hot biscuits. Cool for 5 minutes; they firm up as they cool. They keep 4 days in the fridge or freeze 3 months. Rewarm for 5 minutes at 350°F.

Computed from the ingredients with our published formula, not yet kitchen-tested. How
As written, 1977 kcal goes into the pot and 509 g of ingredients comes out as about 458 g of food: 432 kcal per 100 g. Cooking moves water and energy density is the score's biggest lever, so the dish is scored as cooked, not as an average of its parts. Every ingredient links to its food page, with the same data and score. The label's percentages are each macronutrient's share of the calories. The full formula.
