Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chopped deli ham
- 5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 eggs
- 2 green onions, chopped (whites and greens)
- 1 cup Colby cheese, grated
- 1/2 tablespoon butter
- Extra almond flour (for handling the dough)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Biscuit Mixture
- Make the Biscuit Base: Prepare your favorite keto biscuit recipe up to the point just before adding the milk, then set it aside.
Step 2: Sauté the Green Onions
- Melt the Butter: In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Sauté the Onions: Add the chopped green onions to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until they are softened.
Step 3: Cook the Eggs
- Add the Eggs: Crack the eggs into the pan with the sautéed onions and stir gently to scramble them. Cook just until the eggs start to set, then remove from the heat.
Step 4: Combine Ingredients
- Mix with Biscuit Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked bacon, chopped deli ham, sautéed green onions, and scrambled eggs with the biscuit mixture. Toss with a fork to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
- Add the Cheese: Add the grated Colby cheese to the mixture and combine well.
Step 5: Form the Dough
- Add Buttermilk: Gradually add buttermilk to the mixture, using a fork to combine until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
- Preheat the Oven: Grease an iron skillet or baking sheet and preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 6: Shape the Biscuits
- Form the Biscuits: Using well-floured hands, take portions of the biscuit dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, smoothing the tops slightly.
Step 7: Bake
- Bake the Biscuits: Place the baking sheet on the bottom shelf of the oven and bake until the bottoms begin to brown. Then move the baking sheet to the top shelf and bake for an additional 15-17 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Step 8: Finish and Serve
- Butter the Tops: Remove the biscuits from the oven and rub the tops with butter while they are still hot.
- Serve: Enjoy your Keto Omelet Biscuits warm for a delicious and satisfying breakfast.
Tips for Perfect Biscuits
- Handling the Dough: Use extra almond flour on your hands to prevent the dough from sticking while shaping the biscuits.
- Adjust Seasonings: Feel free to adjust the amount of salt, pepper, or add other herbs and spices to suit your taste.
- Serving Suggestions: These biscuits pair wonderfully with a side of avocado, fresh greens, or a dollop of sour cream.
