Ingredients
Servings
8
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup gluten-free oat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or coconut sugar
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, gluten-free oat flour, gluten-free baking powder, baking soda, salt, and erythritol or coconut sugar.
-
In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to maintain a light biscuit texture.
-
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, distributing them evenly without crushing.
-
Scoop 2-3 tablespoon-sized mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart.
-
Sprinkle sliced almonds over each biscuit to add a crunchy, nutty topping.
-
Bake for 14-16 minutes or until biscuits turn lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving.
-
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Tips
Protein Highlight
egg gives this dairy recipe its main protein focus, while supporting ingredients add texture, fiber, or slow-burning carbohydrates. Keep the protein portion clear on the plate instead of letting sauces, toppings, or starches become the bulk of the meal.
Goal Fit
This recipe fits meal prep, active-week eating, and balanced family meals because it combines familiar ingredients with a fitness-friendly structure. Use it when you want a practical option that can support recovery, satiety, or steady energy without turning the meal into a supplement-style dish.
Protein Density
To keep the protein density strong, measure calorie-dense extras and add more egg or a compatible high-protein side before increasing the starch or sauce. If you scale the recipe, preserve the ratio between the protein base and the vegetables, grains, or toppings.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I meal prep Gluten-Free Blueberry Almond Breakfast Biscuits?
- Yes. Portion it into airtight containers and keep toppings, sauces, or crunchy finishes separate when that will protect the texture.
- How can I increase the protein?
- Add a little more egg or pair the recipe with a compatible high-protein side such as Greek yogurt, eggs, tofu, beans, or lean meat depending on the recipe style.
- Can I make it lighter?
- Use measured oil, lighter dairy or sauce options, and a larger vegetable portion while keeping the main protein amount steady.
- What should I watch when swapping ingredients?
- Keep moisture, salt, and cooking time in mind because high-protein swaps can dry out or firm up faster than the original ingredient.
Ingredient Replacements
- almond flour: Use the closest lean protein or high-protein base that fits the recipe format, and keep the portion similar so the texture and protein balance stay intact.
- gluten-free oat flour: Swap with a similar cooked grain, vegetable, dairy item, or pantry ingredient when needed, adjusting liquid or cooking time if the replacement is wetter or drier.
- gluten-free baking powder: Use a related spice, herb, sauce, or aromatic if this ingredient is unavailable, then taste before adding extra salt or heat.
- Gluten-free option: Choose certified gluten-free grains, crumbs, sauces, and pantry items when cross-contact matters.
- Dairy-free option: Replace yogurt, cheese, kefir, or milk-based ingredients with unsweetened high-protein dairy-free alternatives when they fit the recipe.
- Calorie adjustment: Keep oils, sweeteners, nuts, cheese, and creamy sauces measured so the recipe stays aligned with a protein-forward plate.
Storage
Cool Gluten-Free Blueberry Almond Breakfast Biscuits before storing, refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 4 days, keep crisp toppings or fresh garnishes separate when useful, freeze only if the main ingredients tolerate thawing well, and reheat gently with a splash of liquid or a short oven, skillet, microwave, or air-fryer warm-up that matches the recipe texture.
