These are very light and fluffy Paleo biscuits and have a great texture. It was a real challenge to develop this recipe but I think it turned out fantastic. I hope you can all enjoy this recipe and share it with people who you think may enjoy it.
As you can tell by looking at the biscuits, they aren't going to fool someone that doesn't eat Paleo. But, for those of you on the Paleo diet, you know how hard it is to come up with a Paleo biscuit that isn't dry and crumbly and tastes tolerable.
I was able to come up with this recipe by mixing three different Paleo "flours" together to come up with a Paleo biscuit recipe that is light and fluffy stores better than other Paleo biscuits.
Tips and Tricks
- Because of the variation in ingredients, altitudes, etc. your results may vary. If you find yours are too flaky and crumbly try three eggs instead of two, with an extra tablespoon butter and 2 teaspoon baking soda w/ 2 teaspoon baking powder. (Thanks to reader Heather for the comment mentioning this.)
- You may sub the butter with ghee * or coconut oil. Coconut oil is used a lot in place of butter but be cautious as it has a much lower melting point. Chill it first and use a pastry blender instead of your hands so your body heat doesn’t melt it. You might get a slightly different texture.
- If using cannedcoconut milk* (the very thick full-fat kind), you only need to use a couple of tablespoons diluted in water.
- Feel free to use any kind of plant-based milk or even regular milk or buttermilk if you want.
- These will dry out a bit faster than regular biscuits, so make sure to store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Make sure not to over-bake them or they will crumble. It can be very tempting to cook them too long but remember that they will continue to keep cooking when you take them out of the oven.
Now the next question is, do you eat these Paleo biscuits by themselves, with jam or something totally different? These are really good with pastured pork sausage and free-range eggs. Or, one of my favorite ways is Paleo biscuits and gravy. To do that, cook your sausage in a dutch oven skillet and get them good and brown.
Then add a Tbl. of butter and a Tbl. of tapioca flour * and cook until it combines. Then slowly add in coconut milk until it's the consistency and amount of gravy that you like. Then smother one of these biscuits in your gravy.
So flavorful from the brown bits on the bottom of your pan. You'll almost feel like you're in a diner. But, guess what? You'll feel a heck of a lot better than if you really ate diner food.

Description
Very fluffy and light paleo biscuits with a great texture.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Cup Almond Flour *
- ⅔ Cup Tapioca Flour *
- ½ Cup Coconut Flour *
- 2 tsp Paleo Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- ¼ tsp Real Salt *
- 5 Tbsp Butter
- ½ Cup Boxed Coconut Milk, Unsweetened Almond Milk or other Milk of your choice
- 1 tsp Lemon Juice
- 2 Eggs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick mat.
- Combine the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl.
- Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and cut in using your fingers until it resembles a coarse meal.
- Make a well in the center of the mixture.
- In another bowl, whisk together the dairy free buttermilk (which is the coconut milk and the lemon juice mixed together, let it set for a few minutes before doing this step) and the eggs until well combined.
- Pour the liquid ingredients into the well of dry ingredients and fold in using a rubber spatula until fully combined.
- Mixture will be wet.
- Allow to sit for 5 minutes so that the flours can absorb more moisture. This will make it easier to shape into biscuits.
- When the dough has sat for several minutes, you will notice it is not as wet and sticky as it was.
- Coat a ¼ C. measuring cup with tapioca flour (this can be done by scooping a full ¼ C. of flour and then dumping it back out and tapping the cup upside down to remove clumps).
- With the flour coated measuring cup, scoop up enough dough to fill the cup and then invert it on your baking sheet.
- You may need to tap the handle a bit to allow it to fully release.
- An ice cream scoop with a spring release will also work for more of a drop biscuit shape.
- Repeat with remaining dough, placing each biscuit 2" apart.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the tops have turned lightly golden brown.
- Cool on a wire rack.
Notes
If using cannedcoconut milk*(the very thick full-fat kind), you only need to use a couple tablespoons diluted in water.

These are the best paleo biscuits I've ever made! And I've tried a lot of recipes! Most paleo biscuits are very dense. These were fluffy and actually held together well too. Wonderful flavor and my non-paleo family also loved them! I used unsweetened almond milk instead of coconut milk and it worked great. Thanks for the great recipe!

Hi, Rebecca - I just made these and the texture and flavor are basically fantastic. Not having any cream of tartar on hand to make the Paleo Baking Powder, I used regular baking powder instead. I think it may have given them a somewhat metallic aftertaste. Will the Paleo Version eliminate that? Otherwise I can't believe how well they came out!!

It definitely could be the cause of it. Many commercial baking powders put aluminum in their powder.

So, I’ve been searching for a paleo biscuit recipe for years. They’re always either crumbly coconut sand in your mouth or a gooey mess. These are fantastic!!!! My 12 year old and my husband both enjoyed them, and I can’t wait to make a batch with sausage gravy. I used lard because my body doesn’t love dairy, and it worked beautifully.

I've tried several lectin free biscuit recipes - these were the best!!! I substituted a fermented coconut yogurt in place of the milk and lemon juice. These held together better than any almond flour biscuit I've tried and they were flakier and lighter than cassava flour. I used an ice cream scoop and they came out beautifully. I flattened the tops after releasing them from the scoop. The recipe made a dozen biscuits and we had to stop ourselves from eating them all 🙂

If I could give this recipe 10 STARS I would!! They taste better than my mom's growing up. 😉 Shhh... don't tell her.
They are flaky (not crumbly at all!) and taste like the real deal. I was so excited to share a childhood favourite food with my paleo son. He loved them.
I've made this recipe multiple times with chilled coconut oil (worked!) palm shortening chilled (worked!) butter (worked!) and now I have a batch in the oven made with homemade lard (for savory biscuits)
Thank you SO very much for sharing your recipe with us!! We will be forever grateful.

Really wanted to like these but there was a very weird aftertaste, must have been one of the flours I used. Will try again with fresh batch of flours and see if it improves. Very easy to make though and with enough jam they were not too bad.

These actually were great! So often you get a recipe like this that fails in practice, but this one really worked!!! I cannot do tapioca, so I substituted flax meal. I also used coconut cream for higher fat content like real biscuits. Also, I hand scooped them, creating layers with a few pieces, and them gently squashing into a round form. They were perfectly fluffy and pulled apart easily into layers like real biscuits. Even grain-eaters enjoyed these with butter and honey on top. Thank you for bringing biscuits back into my life!!

Best paleo biscuit recipe I've tried yet! They hold together well and have a nice flavor. My only minor complaint would be that they have a slight gumminess from the tapioca flour. I may try to reduce it a bit and up coconut flour next time. I probably shouldn't mess with it though because it is honestly close to perfect. I used cultured pasture butter and scooped mine to make more of a puck shaped drop biscuit. I made these to go with biscuits and gravy and they were a hit. I will be making again!

I just made these!!! I followed your recipe to the letter!!! So this entire recipe is great folks!! But measurements are important, taking time, and following the instructions exactly!!! I only substituted ghee for the butter!!! I used an ice cream scooper dipped in tapioca flower to scoop and release the better! They just came out fluffy and brown on top. Took 12 minutes at 400 degrees in my hot South Texas oven. So thankful when recipes work as I've certainly had my share of paleo baking disasters!! Will follow your other recipes for sure. THANK YOU.

These are great! The first time I made them, I followed the directions exactly and hand mixed the butter into the dough. I only came up with 7 or 8 biscuits. The next time, I pulsed the fat into the biscuits (I used palm shortening the second time) with my food processor, and they turned out much prettier! I got 10 biscuits exactly like the recipe said. I will definitely make these again and again!

As a dairy-free and gluten-free eater, I'm excited to see biscuits that are safe for me to eat! I am constantly bombarded with work, and I never have time to find recipes that work with my body. I am always consumed with IT projects and protecting business information, so I can never find the time to sit down and search for recipes that won't make me sick! Now I'll have more time to focus on protecting business data while eating delicious biscuits I thought I would never be able to enjoy again! I'll be giving this recipe a try as soon as I get home!

Hello! I followed your recipe at the letter but I think there are too much salt in it as I can't taste anything, no taste. it's not good at all... are you sure about the quantity of salt? I used 1/4 tsp Salt . Will try again with a pinch of salt..

Did you fill a whole 1/4 cup with the mix and then they went flat when baking? It's times like this I wish I could be in your kitchen cause there are so many factors that could cause them to go flat. At least they tasted good . . .

Hi there-
These were delicious, but mine also turned out flat and a bit raw in the center. I used the same almond flour and coconut milk you suggested, but I only had Bob’s Red Mill coconut flour on hand. I followed the recipe to a “t” and even let the dough dry out for 10 minutes. I did the “1/4 cup forming method” and let the biscuits dry out a few more minutes on the sheet pan before baking. Do you think that the dough needed to sit for a longer period of time? Too much coconut milk? Oven not hot enough? I would love to try these again!!!
Thanks,
JanetReply
Rebecca Baron
It's so hard to say what went wrong. Did you make your Paleo baking powder fresh? I know it only lasts a few weeks and that could cause them to be flat.

Very yummy - best paleo biscuits I've had so far! They held up without falling apart when smothered in gravy! ? However, I had to change the amount of baking powder/baking soda that the recipe called for. Way to much! Tasted very bad.?? So on batch #2(??), instead of 2t., I did 1/2 t. baking powder.. And instead of 1 t., I did 1/4 t. baking soda.. Still got the same amount (10) and turned out great! Also, I used coconut oil in place of the butter - it worked great; I just refrigerated the flour mixture in order to insure that the coconut oil was hard. Thanks for sharing the recipe! ??

Been Primal-paleo about 9 months now.... I was really missing biscuits. Other recipes were heavy, dense, or way too cumbly. I made these for the family this morning and they were MARVELOUS! I did not have a nut-milk on hand, so I used my husband's buttermilk, still great! I do think the soda taste is a bit strong. Should I increase lemon juice to counteract that, or reduce soda? Thank you for your recipe, best paleo biscuits ever!

We had these tonight with soup and they were wonderful. I am currently dairy free, so I can't use butter and thought coconut oil might impart too much coconut flavor paired with the flour. Instead I subbed Fatworks Pure Lard for the butter and they turned out beautiful. Looking forward to trying the leftovers with breakfast!

These biscuits are Fabulous! I have been searching and trying various recipes for 18 months....my search is over.
I have made these twice and they are sooo good. Not gummy but light and fluffy! The second time I made these I used regular buttermilk and 6 T cold grass fed butter and 3 whole eggs. I let them sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the liquid. Even though I usually use Coconut milk/cream and almond milk.......we do not have a problem with good dairy or eggs. Besides buttermilk is great for digestion and will cure acid reflux.
I baked them for 14 minutes, which was a minute or so too much, but sooo tasty anyway. Served with cream gravy and sausage on the side. Stored them in a zip lock bag and they were perfect the next day. Sliced them in half, slathered with butter, toasted slightly in the oven and topped with strawberry fruit spread.
My cravings for biscuits have been met.
Thank you for sharing your great recipes. Love your blog.

I had to make some substitutions as I cannot eat coconut (other than the oil.) I made them for Thanksgiving and they were wonderful! I subbed banana flour. I also subbed tigernut milk for the coconut milk. I used grass-fed ghee in place of the butter. I might try coconut oil the next time. I baked them in two batches (in my convection toaster oven,) as drop biscuits, and they just totally spread out (maybe the subbing of banana flour.) So for the 2nd batch I dropped them into jumbomuffin cups. They did not come out flakey, but they were airy, not too dense and didn't crumble; and thet tasted fantastic. Mine do not come out white, they are brown, perhaps the banana flour, though it seems that other baked items I have used tapioca starch in turns darker. We didn't mind, they just looked like a whole-grain biscuit-muffin but of course they are totally grain-free and easy-peasy to make! Thanks so much for the post and the inpsiration it offered me to experiment with your recipe to adjust it to my needs. Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi Joan, sunflower flour is a great 1:1 substitute for almond flour 🙂 Just a heads up that your biscuits will likely turn out green (baking soda brings out the chlorophyll in sunflower seeds).

Coconut oil is used a lot in place of butter but be cautious as it has a much lower melting point. Chill it first and use a pastry blender instead of your hands so your body heat doesn't melt it. You might get a slightly different texture.

I've never rated a recipe before, but after trying these I had to! We've been GF for a couple of years now and recently went Paleo about 3 months ago. These are the BEST GF/Paleo biscuits I've tried - and we are biscuit snobs! I had to sub arrowroot for the tapioca flour since I didn't have any. I'm looking forward to trying them with the tapioca flour. Mine didn't rise too much, but it didn't matter...these were that good. I envision little sausage patties on this for breakfast, biscuits & gravy, adding garlic, etc. Can't say how much I loved this recipe. It was a challenge not to eat all of them. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you didn’t use all the tapioca flour that the recipe calls for that may be the problem. The tapioca flour helps to bind the biscuits. If they are over-baked at all that could also cause them to be crumbly.

I'm excited to try these, but confused...dairy free buttermilk AND coconut milk AND lemon juice. Or, the coconut milk + lemon juice = dairy free buttermilk ? Stir butter with that as it says in the ingredients, or add with dry ingredients as the directions? I'm a southern girl really missing biscuits, can't wait to make them 🙂

Thank you for letting us know, that was confusing. I fixed the recipe so hopefully it makes sense now. The coconut milk mixed with the lemon juice make the dairy-free buttermilk. You don't put the butter with it at this point. I hope you enjoy our recipe! Let us know what you think.

I have made these several times and haven't run into this problem, but you could add another egg, if you like. It will make the biscuit a little bit heavier, however. They may be a little less crumbly for you if you do them 'drop biscuit' style so that they are not so tall.

I just finished making another batch of these (ate 2 already, too!) and this time I used three eggs instead of two, with an extra tblsp butter and 2 tsp baking soda w/ 2 tsp baking powder. PERFECT! I don't know why they crumbled for me the first time, but this time they are very fluffy and soft, but holding together well enough so that I can slice them in half. 🙂 I drizzled a little bit of sugar free pancake syrup on one of them. Mmmm!
Thanks again!

I just spent 20 minutes finding my way back to you so I could leave a comment about these biscuits.
They. Freaking. Rule.I have left maybe 2 comments ever and usually because I didn't want to insult the blogger too much. Their "best cookies in the universe!" might be ....less wonderful to me. 🙂
Not these. I started Paleo a few weeks ago and am having one heck of a time with breakfast. I can't eat eggs and I recently had a lot of dental work done that made bacon a thing of the past. I was finding biscuit recipes that only used almond flour to be so chewy, which is fine in some recipes. This is the perfect mix: no one-flour notes, endless mirengue mixing, just a plop, stir and drop on the sheet. Wonderful.
Thank you! Every morning I will think of you while enjoying a lovely biscuit and maybe a drip of honey.Reply
