Health and fertility benefits of Keto Broccoli Cheddar Biscuits
Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system. Apple cider vinegar will improve your body's sensitivity to insulin (Reference: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/27/1/281.full)
Ingredients
1 1/2 Cup Hoenyville Almond Flour
4 Cups Raw Broccoli Florets (10 Oz.)
2 Cups Cheddar Cheese (4.5 Oz)
1/4 Cup Coconut Oil (or melted butter)
2 Large Eggs
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Paprika
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375F. Once done, measure out 10 Oz of broccoli florets.
2. Put your broccoli florets into your food processor. If you don’t have a food processor, I recommend the one I use – it lasts a long time and it’s really cheap considering how useful it is.
3. Pulse your broccoli florets in the food processor until it’s finely chopped. I do this in small batches, remove the broccoli, and add more to the food processor.
4. In a large mixing bowl, add 1 1/2 Cup Almond Flour, 1 tsp. Salt, 1 tsp. Paprika, 1 tsp. Garlic Powder, 1/2 tsp. Pepper, and 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda.
5. Mix the spices and almond flour together, then add 2 large eggs and 1/4 Cup Coconut Oil (or melted butter).
6. Mix the eggs and oil (or butter) together with the almond flour until a dough forms.
7. Add your broccoli to the mixture.
8. Combine everything well using your hands.
9. Grate 4.5 Oz. Cheddar Cheese (about 2 cups). I grate my own cheese now because you will find excess carbs from pre-shredded cheese. They normally coat the cheese with corn starch so that it doesn’t stick together.
10. Add your cheese to the dough.
11. Mix together everything with your hands again, until the cheese is evenly distributed throughout.
12. Put your nonstick silpat on a cookie sheet so that they don’t stick as they cook. Form patties out of the dough – you should be able to make 12.
13. Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes or until they start to get flattened.
14. Using a spoon and your fingers, mold the flattened biscuits into a more biscuit like shape. Add some contours and texture around them.
15. Continue baking for about 5 minutes. Then, turn your oven to broil and broil the biscuits for 3-5 minutes.
16. Let the biscuits cool for 2-3 minutes, then remove them from your silpat and place them on a cookie sheet. Cool for 5-10 minutes and serve!
