The Ultimate โ€œEverythingโ€ Biscuit

Finding a recipe that is simultaneously Keto, Vegan, and Gluten-Free while remaining low in Weight Watchers points is the โ€œholy grailโ€ of healthy baking. Traditional biscuits are a points-trap, loaded with white flour and heavy butter. This version flips the script, using plant-based protein and fiber-rich almond flour to create a savory, flaky side dish that actually fuels your body.

These biscuits are perfect for anyone navigating multiple dietary restrictions. Weโ€™ve maximized the protein content to keep you full and satisfied, making them the ideal clean eating dinner accompaniment or a quick macro-friendly snack. With just 3g of net carbs and a significant protein boost, you can enjoy a warm, cheesy biscuit without the typical carb crash or point-heavy guilt.

How to Make Our Keto Vegan Cheddar Biscuits

  1. Prep the Station: Preheat your oven to 375ยฐF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cleanup.
  2. Whisk Dry Goods: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Sift or whisk thoroughly to remove any almond flour clumps.
  3. Create the Dough: Add the vegan yogurt and melted light butter. Fold together until a thick, shaggy dough forms.
  4. Hydrate: Gradually add almond milk one tablespoon at a time until the dough is moist enough to hold its shape but isnโ€™t โ€œwet.โ€
  5. Add the Flavor: Gently fold in the vegan cheddar and fresh chives. Boldly mix until evenly distributed.
  6. Drop and Bake: Scoop 2-tablespoon mounds onto the baking sheet. You should get exactly 12 biscuits.
  7. Bake: Slide into the oven for 15โ€“18 minutes. You are looking for a firm touch and golden edges.
  8. Cool: Allow to sit on the pan for 5 minutes. This is crucial for gluten-free baking as it allows the structure to set!

Storage & Serving Suggestions

  • Storing: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Freezing: These are easy meal prep champions. Flash-freeze on a tray, then toss into a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
  • Reheating: To maintain the โ€œfresh bakedโ€ texture, use an air fryer at 350ยฐF for 3 minutes.
  • Serving Pairings: Perfect alongside a low-carb tofu scramble or a big bowl of vegan โ€œno-chickenโ€ noodle soup.

Tips & FAQs

Are these biscuits Weight Watchers friendly? Yes! By using unsweetened soy yogurt (which is often a ZeroPoint food) and light vegan butter, we keep the points to approximately 2 per biscuit, compared to 8โ€“10 points for a traditional restaurant biscuit.

Can I use coconut flour instead? No, coconut flour is much more absorbent than almond flour. If you need a substitute, use a gluten-free all-purpose blend, but note that the carb count will increase.

How do I get more protein in these? You can swap the almond milk for a high-protein pea milk or double the amount of unflavored protein powder while slightly increasing the yogurt to keep the moisture balanced.
