Grain-Free Biscuits for Paleo & Gluten-Free Diets
Taken from The Wheat Belly Cookbook by Dr. Wiiliam Davis, anyone following a paleo or gluten-free diet will appreciate these fluffy, nutty grain-free biscuits! Think “buttermilk” – they are perfect for dipping into sunny side up eggs, spreading with jam, or slathering with sausage gravy. Our favorite way to eat them is warm form the oven with a little organic butter. Here’s the recipe:
Paleo Grain-Free Biscuits
Ingredients:
1 cup almond meal/flour

4 tablespoons cold, cut butter

Finding grain-free alternatives to favorites like biscuits, breads and bakery isn’t easy, but these almond flour and flax seed based treasures are a tasty replacement that satisfiesI always look for the easy button on recipes, too, and these yummy biscuits only take 25 minutes start to finish! That makes them easy enough for a Sunday brunch – and they are tasty enough for Thanksgiving dinner, too!
