Almond Butter Biscuits
Make these almond biscuits and have a protein-packed breakfast that allows for more sustained energy than flour-based biscuits. These biscuits go great with jams and jellies and are perfect served warm. Serve them with a side of fruit and yogurt, and you'll have a lovely and healthy breakfast.
It'll take you less than twenty minutes from start to finish to make almond biscuits, and they can be stored in an air tight container for up to a week after they've cooled!
The hardest thing about being on a low-carb diet is thinking we have to say goodbye forever to pastas, breads, and rice. The good news is there are alternatives! Almond butter biscuits are one of the alternatives.
You may even find yourself picking these biscuits over a traditional biscuit, especially for breakfast. Sometimes when I have a carb-filled breakfast, I crash an hour later, or I find it does not keep me full.
A biscuit packed with protein won't do that to you! You'll feel so much better. :-) Don't get me wrong, there is a time and a place for a carb heavy biscuit, but early Monday morning isn't the time and place for most people.
