Flaky Buttery Keto Fathead Biscuits

If you have been on Keto for a while, the most challenging part of adherence may be missing bread and other bread-like foods. You will love this easy recipe for flaky, buttery fathead biscuits. The dough is formed using a cookie scoop, then flattened to the shape of a biscuit. Alternatively, you could roll the dough into a 2 ½” thick slab and cut it using biscuit cutters. The tops are brushed with melted butter and baked until perfectly golden brown and delicious. We love the ease of preparation of these biscuits; as they do not require rolling any dough! Most fathead doughs require you to melt the cheeses together, but we have skipped that step and simply blended it in the food processor. The result is a firm yet workable dough that bakes up wonderfully! The nicely browned biscuits are brushed with additional melted butter and topped with flaky sea salt! These would be delicious cut in half and spread with more butter - because why not?
