Ingredient Notes
almond flour: I don’t have a nut-free flour recommendation. I tried this with coconut flour and they did not turn out at all. If you are able to come up with a nut-free flour substitute for these biscuits, please share in the comments!
ghee: You can also use coconut oil or vegan butter. If you’re okay with dairy, you can also use regular butter. All quantities stay the same!
eggs: I use regular eggs, but if you prefer not to, you can substitute 2 flax egg replacements instead.
baking powder: I like to use gluten-free baking powder to keep these keto biscuits dairy free and gluten free. Gluten-free baking powder is easy to find at Sprouts, Thrive Market, and other local grocery stores.
salt: I use Kosher salt and LOVE IT. I also use flakey sea salt to sprinkle on top of the biscuits.
Recipe Step by Step
- In 1 bowl, combine almond flour, melted ghee, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Stir together, and you’re practically done!
- Use a large cookie scoop to scoop out the biscuits on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Lightly flatten to give them that biscuit shape. Top with flaky sea salt and bake!
The resulting biscuit has a crispy exterior and a tender crumby interior. Swear to god, they taste EXACTLY like regular biscuits. I love the slight crunch you get from the flaky sea salt.

I made biscuits starting with your recipe here and they turned out great. I was out of eggs so I used flax eggs and the dough seemed a little too stiff so I added a couple T. Of Greek yogurt (I didn’t need dairy free) to the rest. The ones without the Greek yogurt were still good, but the ones with it were better. The flax seemed to work well, they had a good texture. Thanks.
Glad you liked it and happy to hear you were able to make some great substitutions!
Please don’t call a recipe “dairy-free” if it contains ghee. Ghee is dairy. What you really mean is “lactose free”. Some of us are allergic to all milk products not just the lactose in some of them, and ghee also makes us sick.
Thank you for the recipe. I’m going to try it with palm oil shortening today. I’m optimistic.
Good point. You can for sure use coconut oil as a 1:1 substitute for the ghee. Palm shortening should work too! Hope you loved them!
These are good but a bit too greasy. Also how are these dairy free?
Ghee has the lactose removed, which is what a majority of people with a dairy intolerance have an issue with!
Ghee is dairy. It’s made from butter. FYI.
It is just the butter fat, with all the milk solids removed. So it’s lactose-free! Extremely rare for someone with dairy issues to have an issue with ghee!
There are people who are actually allergic to milk products, not just lactose intolerant. Ghee makes me wheeze.
Glad you know what foods cause your body issues!
