\"Cheese<\/a>I made my favorite vegetable beef soup<\/a> the other day and wanted something to add a different flavor to the meal.\u00a0 We don’t eat a lot of bread or bread substitutes; however, we had really enjoyed the coconut flour blueberry muffins<\/a>, so I thought I would try the coconut flour Cheese Biscuits.\u00a0 We love cheese with almost everything, especially extra sharp cheddar, which is the kind of cheese I added to these biscuits.<\/p>\n

Here’s how I made my cheese biscuits:<\/em><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

4 eggs, preferably pastured
\n1\/4 cup butter, melted (or coconut oil), preferably from grass-fed cows
\n1\/4 teaspoon salt, Celtic Sea Salt
\n1\/3 cup sifted coconut flour, organic
\n1\/4 teaspoon baking powder, aluminum free
\n3\/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, from rBST free cows (no GMOs)<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Blend together eggs, butter, and salt.\u00a0 Combine coconut flour with baking powder and whisk into batter until there are no lumps.\u00a0 Fold in cheese.\u00a0 Drop batter by the spoonful onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.\u00a0 (You could use a greased cookie sheet instead.)\u00a0 Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes.\u00a0 Makes 8 biscuits.<\/p>\n

By the way, the crispy, cheesy biscuit edges you see in the photo were especially good!<\/p>\n

Other options<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For onion biscuits, add 1\/4 teaspoon onion powder when you blend the eggs, butter, and salt.<\/p>\n

For garlic cheese biscuits, fold 8 diced cloves of garlic into the batter after adding the shredded cheese.<\/p>\n

This recipe is based on one by Bruce Fife in his Cooking with Coconut Flour<\/em> cookbook.<\/p>\n
