    Let's get started!

    First, let's line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat and preheat the oven to 350F.

    Now, in a large mixing bowl combine the almond flour, baking powder and salt.

    Add in the cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter to cut in the butter until the mixture is pea size crumbles.

    Don't have a pastry cutter?  Use a fork, 2 butter knives, or your clean hands!

    Now we add in the eggs, heavy cream, sweetener and vanilla.

    Stir well.  The low carb strawberry shortcake batter will be thick enough to hold its shape.

    Using a 3 tablespoon kitchen scoop, divide the dough into 10 biscuits.  Kitchen scoops are so amazing!  I use them all the time!

      Delicious! With a few macerated strawberries and whipped cream, it doesn't get any better. My guests loved it and didn't even know it was monk fruit sweetener. Devine.

      EXcellent recipe. Biscuits were just perfect. Some recipes don’t cut in the butter and I think this is such a defining step for biscuits. Thanks so much for sharing with us!

      I made these with ground almonds because I was slap outa the fine almond flour. They flattened out a lot but they were still divine. Served with a raspberry rhubarb compote and whipped cream. Heavenly. Can't wait to try them with finer almond flour.

      Soo I tried this recipe. Ran out of almond flour so I had to use 1 1/2 cups coconut flour. Very dry and crumbly. 🙁 not working. Wondering if more cream could be used or if sour cream?..any thoughts? Thank you.

      These are delicious, light and fluffy! I chose the recipe for gluten free reasons (it uses just almond flour instead of a blend all the other GF recipes were requiring) so I used regular sugar in them for a non-keto biscuit. Great recipe!! Thank you for sharing!

      Hi Jennifer,

      I am just new to the Keto world and I am a lover of being in my kitchen and baking for all my family and friends. My question is.....when I look at the nutritional information you provide are you giving total carbohydrates? For this recipe it’s 11g of carbohydrates and 5g Fibre so it’s then only 6g Net Carbs right????

      Thank you,
      Trevor

      Very good. Used almond milk with 1/2 tbsp cornstarch instead of heavy cream. Will decrease monkfruit to 1/3 cup. Made 13 biscuits instead of 10. Husband loved them

      Can you use full fat coconut milk or whole milk instead of cream?

      Could I leave the sweetener out? We just want biscuits with lots of butter and keto strawberry jam.
