From the recipe book Better Breads in Healing Gourmet series. Delicious! Nutritious! and EASY too.
Ingredients
1 1/2 Tbsp Organic Shortening
3/4 tsp. aluminum-free baking powder
1/4 tsp. himalayan rock salt
1 cup. ground organic almond flour
4 large pastured egg whites
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk dry ingredients.
3. Add cold shortening into dry ingredients, and using a fork or pastry blender, cut
shortening into flour until the mixture has pea-sized chunks throughout.
4. Chill mixture for 10 minutes (NOTE: This is very important – the colder the fat is, the
fluffier your biscuits will be.)
5. Meanwhile, whisk egg whites with a fork in a bowl until foamy.
6. Remove mixture from fridge and whisk in the egg whites – you want a runny dough with
chunks of almond mixture.
7. Pour it into greased foil-lined ramekins or a muffin top pan and transfer to hot oven
immediately.
8. For ramekins, bake 15 minutes. For muffin top pan, bake 12 minutes.
