Notes
Divide the total recipe by the number you make, this will make it easier to calculate the values of each biscuit once you have added the toppings. I made 6 biscuits using a 6cm cutter, for the ham star I used a 5.5cm cutter and for the cheese star I used a 3.5cm cutter. I used Morrisons thin cut ham, if you use a thicker ham you will need to adjust the values after weighing. The biscuits will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days, just add the topping when needed. Each one is only 1g of carbs making them good party treats for both keto and non keto family members.
I made 6 each treat gives: 5.22g fat / 2.31g protein / 1.00g CHO
Ingredients
- 25g Butter
- 12g Mature cheddar cheese – finely grated
- 7g Ground almonds
- 28g Ultra fine fiberflour – LONJEVITY FOODS
- 10g Cheese slices – DAIRY LEA
- 10g Ham
- You will also need some seasoning.
Instructions
- Reserve 8g butter.
- Start by making the biscuits:
- Pre heat oven to 180c / fan 160c / gas 5.
- Mix together the fiberflour, ground almonds and a pinch of salt, rub in the butter.
- Stir in the finely grated cheese.
- Mix to a dough with approximately 2 teaspoons of cold water.
- Roll out evenly, not too thin, between 2 pieces of parchment paper.
- Shape as preferred, cook for approximately 12 minutes, leave to cool on a wire rack.
- When ready to serve, cut stars out of the ham and cheese slices then weigh them. One slightly smaller than the other looks good on the biscuit.
- Using the reserved butter, spread on the biscuits, dividing equally between the number of biscuits you have made.
- Add the ham star first then top with the cheese star.
