As a born and bred Southerner, biscuits are my spirit animal. You know I like to find healthy alternatives while not sacrificing taste, and this recipe for Paleo Drop biscuits are a low-carb, guilt-free way to eat flaky, buttery biscuits.
For this recipe, I’ve substituted traditional flour for almond flour, and coconut milk can be used in place of cow’s milk. Trust me, you will have a tough time keeping your hands off these ham biscuits! Especially since they’re layered in Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce, they’re about as tasty and Southern as it gets.
There’s no bad time to serve up biscuits, but they make for an easy brunch or tailgating spread. It’s also an excellent way to use leftover ham from my Honey Ginger Smoked Ham recipe! When serving, set out the Carolina Mustard Sauce so people can help themselves, as well as local honey, bacon jam, or smoked pickles, so guests can try out your smoked goodies!
These keto and paleo ham biscuits are the perfect way to start your day!
