Phase Three - Day Three

Well, I cheated. I'll admit it. It was awful.

My boyfriend and I went out for Valentine's day, to one of our favorite places - BBQ! - and...went crazy. Afterwards, we both regretted it!

But before dinner, I had done pretty well. I wasn't super hungry all morning, so I kind of had brunch.

Brunch: Paleo Biscuits and Eggs
Snacks: Almonds and apple

Yup, I said biscuits! How? Simple...almond flour. Here's the recipe:

Almond Flour Biscuits
  • 2 1/2 Cups almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/4 Cup Natural buttery spread (Warning! Controversial as to whether or not it's Paleo/Primal)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Tbs Honey
Yields 10 Biscuits
Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately. Gradually add dry to wet and mix well! Bake at 350 for 15 minutes or until brown on bottom edges.

I dropped mine on a cookie sheet, rather than adding more flour, rolling them out, and cutting them. The dough was the consistency of cookie dough, so I used my cookie scoop! Then added what was left to each biscuit, using my little spatula to kind of flatten them.

They were a little buttery for my taste, since the almond flour provides a nutty, buttery taste anyway. I'm working on converting the butter ingredient to canola oil, to make it authentically paleo/primal. Plus I cheated with margarine because that's all I had.
