Ingredients
FOR THE BISCUITS:
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup almond flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup butter, melted
eggs
3/4 cup sour cream
FOR THE SAUSAGE GRAVY:
1 pound ground breakfast sausage
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp almond flour
1 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup heavy (whipping) cream
1 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Directions
- TO MAKE THE BISCUITS:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Slowly incorporate the Cheddar cheese.
- In the center of the dry ingredients, create a well for adding the wet ingredients.
- Into this well, add the melted butter, eggs, and sour cream. Fold together until a dough forms.
- Use a spoon to drop biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, placing them 1 inch apart.
- Bake the biscuits for 20 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned.
- TO MAKE THE SAUSAGE GRAVY:
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the ground sausage breaking it up with spoon and browning it on all sides.
- Once the sausage browns, add the minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute.
- Once the garlic is fragrant, sprinkle in the almond flour. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the almond flour to incorporate with the grease to develop a light roux, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes.
- Slowly add the almond milk to the roux, stirring constantly.
- Add the heavy cream. Increase the temperature to medium-high, stirring and reducing the mixture for 3 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the pepper and salt. Stir for 1 minute to incorporate.
- Check the biscuits and remove the baking sheet from the oven when ready. Cool the biscuits for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat again under the sausage gravy to low. Simmer while the biscuits cool.
- Once the biscuits are cool, plate 1 biscuit per person and top with ⅓ cup of gravy.
