Looking for something to satisfy your bread cravings? These biscuits are so buttery and fluffy, and can be eaten on the side of just about any meal. And they can be made in under 15 minutes!
Light and fluffy drop biscuits that can be eaten with sausage gravy, used as an egg and cheese sandwich or eaten on their own!
You can even change things up and add herbs or spices to the mix to give them even more flavor!

These are very good. I made mine savory by adding some parsley and basil. I think if you wanted to make a breakfast sandwich (with an egg and cheese) you might want to make 6 larger biscuits instead of the 12 smaller ones. At least that’s my preference. Again, these biscuits are really good!
Hi Deborah,
Sure, that’s one way to do it. I honestly prefer the smaller ones to save a little on the carbs, but to each his own, right? Glad you liked them and great idea to make them savory with the addition of herbs!
My Brother in law just started Keto a month ago and has lost 13 pounds. He misses his bread. My sister and he made some bread, but it is tasteless and heavy as a brick. What is a great recipe for tasty, light bread they can try? Thank you.
Hi!!! Just made these and they were amazing!! One question mine didn’t get as high as yours. Any suggestions?
Hi Julie,
The only thing I can imagine is maybe check the expiration date on your baking powder. Or maybe over-mixing the batter might make them less fluffy. Just two ideas to consider. I’m glad to hear you liked them anyway 🙂
Thank you so much for this recipe!
You are most welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Do you think they woood freeze well? I’m about to make another batch right now. Lololol.
Absolutely! I freeze mine all the time 🙂
OMG! They are so good. Thanks for posting. Now I want to try and make some kind of egg bake using this for a top or bottom. Do you have any recipes for something like that?
Hi Mary,
I don’t really have anything like that in a recipe, but I just scramble and egg, add a little cheddar cheese and either sausage or bacon to sandwich in between one of these biscuits and YUM!! Thanks for the great feedback and I’m happy to hear you like them!
Just made this and took them out off oven. Very good. Will make again.
I did let my eggs get to room temperature that was suggested. I didn’t use the swerve but I did use a little monk fruit, maybe a 1/2 tsp.
Thank you for the recipe.
Hi Sonya, Glad you liked them, they’re a favorite of mine too! A little trick I use when I’m strapped for time and need room temp eggs, I submerge them in really warm (almost hot) water for about 10 minutes and it gets them to the perfect temp! Thank for the great feedback 🙂
can you leave out the “sweetner” and not hurt the texture?
Hi Susan, yes that should be just fine.
WOW! These are soooooo good! I can see so many other possibilities with these from sweet to savory! Thank you for a great recipe!
Hi Emily,
You are most welcome and thank you for your kind words! I’m glad you liked the biscuits and you can certainly change things up with different flavors 🙂
These were fabulous…I had one with dinner all last week ^_^
Hi Jessica,
Thanks for the feedback and I’m glad you enjoyed them 🙂
These are delicious!!
I’m glad you liked them!
Oh my gosh! These are so good! I’ve been trying low carb/gluten free and have had some disappointments here lately but these are fantastic! I had to sub whole milk greek yogurt in place of the sour cream since I was out of sour cream….worked great!
Very creative of you to sub with the greek yogurt!! I’m glad they turned out great for you 🙂 Thank you for the feedback!!
Is there a way to make them a little less eggy?
Hmm, not sure they would hold together with only one egg to be honest. I’m not sure why they would be eggy, there are only 2 eggs in the entire recipe of 12 biscuits. They really shouldn’t taste too eggy.
I’ve read this but haven’t tried it yet. If you let the eggs get to room temperature before mixing it’s not as eggy. I have no idea why but it’s worth a try!!!
Loved this recipe! I hate gluten free bread, but this one was GOOD! My whole family likes it! Thanks!
Thanks for taking the time to give your feedback Andrea, and I’m glad you liked the biscuits!
Soooooo good!! As with any recipe I have to tweak it a bit. I added pepper, garlic and onion powder, and Italian seasoning. I can’t give you measurements because I rarely ever do, but I’m generous with my seasonings, thanks Dad. J didn’t want the seasonings, so I only added salt and pepper to his and subbed cottage cheese and extra butter (ran out of sour cream!). Let me tell ya, extra butter is 👌. It ups the fat and had a great texture. Could absolutely be made with cinnamon for a sweet treat! Ooh, and pumpkin!! Endless possibilities if… Read more »

How creative of you to add your own touch to the biscuits! 10 minutes was perfect for me as well. Thanks for sharing your tweaking and I’m glad to hear you liked the biscuits!
I made these yesterday and they were soooooo tasty. These will be on my weekly list of things to make for my weekend prep! Thanks for the recipe 👍

I just made these muffins/biscuits I didn’t put in the sweetener. I didn’t have any cheddar cheese or sour cream either. I substituted these items with an 8oz brick of cream cheese. They turned out awesome. So tasty!!!
Sounds fantastic and very creative! Glad to hear that they turned out great for you 🙂
