Easy Broccoli + Cheddar Egg Biscuits (Gluten Free)
These delightful broccoli and cheddar egg biscuits are a fantastic and easy-to-make option for a gluten-free breakfast or snack. By using a blend of almond and coconut flour, they achieve a tender, biscuit-like texture without any wheat.
The process of making these biscuits is incredibly straightforward. You simply mix the dry ingredients almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder with the wet ingredients: eggs, cottage cheese, and melted butter.
What makes these biscuits so versatile is their adaptability. While the classic broccoli and cheddar combination is a winner, you can easily customize them with other ingredients you have on hand.
