Basil and Garlic Drop Biscuits (Low Carb and Dairy Free)

April 5, 2013 By Karen Sorenson

This content will be shown before all post

Every once in awhile I like to have a biscuit with dinner and I love to whip up these drop biscuits.  They are so easy to throw together and you can flavor them with whatever spices you enjoy.  It is also easy to make a sweet biscuit which is perfect for breakfast or dessert.  The possibilities are endless!  Today I wanted to share with you the variation I make all the time, the Basil and Garlic Drop Biscuits. The remind me of a mostly dairy free (the only dairy is in the optional garlic butter/ghee) Cheddar Bay Biscuits.  So delicious!  If you eat dairy, it wouldn’t hurt to throw some grass fed cheddar cheese in the mix before baking.  Your family will be delighted to see these yummy biscuits on your dinner table.

Enjoy!
