Great recipe. Thanks for sharing. Quick question though, why are they called “drop” biscuits? Another quick question, can I use Psyllium Husk instead of Xanthan Gum? Thanks for responding.
You’re welcome. They are called “drop” biscuits because they don’t require any rolling or shaping. You just mix the ingredients and drop by tablespoonfuls onto the baking sheet. Yes you can use psyllium husk instead of xanthan gum but you have to use twice as much psyllium husk for the same results.
I’ve been Keto for several years. This is the best textured and tasting bread since I’ve changed to Keto. I do it care for the texture of almond flour. Next time I make this I will proof a tiny bit of dry yeast to give it a yeasty smell and taste. I’ll let you know how that’s goes. I look forward to trying more of your recipes.
That’s great I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe
How did the “yeast” flavor trail go, Mary?

You’re welcome. I am very glad these turned out to your liking
