Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1 lb lean ground chicken (or ground turkey)
- 1 tsp salt (divided)
- 1 tsp sage
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1.5 cups gluten free flour (I like King Arthur Baking)
- 1.5 tsp baking powder (look for gluten free)
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 4 eggs
- 1.5 cups gluten free flour (I like King Arthur Baking)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup milk of choice (I used almond milk)
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the ground chicken, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1 tsp sage. Cook for 5-6 minutes, using a wooden spoon to break up the chicken, until cooked through. Drain any fat. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the gluten free flour, baking powder, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, and rosemary. Mix to combine.
- To the same bowl, add the eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar, milk of choice, and tsp apple cider vinegar. Stir well to combine.
- Add the cooked ground chicken and fold it in to combine.
- Spray a large baking sheet with avocado oil. Drop the biscuits onto the baking sheet using a spoon. You should have 12 biscuits total.
- Combine the egg + water to make the egg wash. Brush some of the egg wash over each of the biscuits.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes until the edges are beginning to brown and they have puffed up a bit. Let them cool completely. Enjoy!
