I Love These Biscuits Because They’re Everything I Want From Comfort Food Without The Carb Crash. The Cottage Cheese Keeps Them Moist And Protein-Packed, While Coconut Flour Makes Them Perfectly Keto-Friendly. I Can Have A Warm, Savory Biscuit In Just 20 Minutes—Right From The Air Fryer. Whether I’m pairing them with soup, eggs, or enjoying them on their own, they always satisfy my craving for something rich, cheesy, and filling.

Ingredients

(Here’s A Tip: Check Out The Full List Of Ingredients And Measurements In The Recipe Card Below.)

  • 1 Large Egg (Room Temperature)

  • 1/4 Cup Cottage Cheese (4% Milk Fat Recommended)

  • 1/2 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

  • 1/4 Cup Coconut Flour

  • 1/2 Tablespoon Baking Powder

  • 1/8 Teaspoon Salt

  • 3 Teaspoons Butter (Divided) Or Avocado/Olive Oil Spray

Directions

  1. I Preheat My Air Fryer To 180°C (350°F) And Add 1 Teaspoon Of Butter To Each Of Three Ramekins. I Let Them Heat For 3 Minutes So The Butter Melts And Coats The Bottom.

  2. In A Food Processor, I Blend The Egg And Cottage Cheese Until Smooth.

  3. I Add The Shredded Cheddar, Coconut Flour, Baking Powder, And Salt, Then Blend Again Until A Dough-Like Consistency Forms.

  4. Using A 1/3 Cup Measure, I Scoop The Dough Into Three Even Mounds And Place Them Into The Warmed Ramekins.

  5. I Air Fry The Biscuits For 10 Minutes, Until The Tops Are Puffy And Golden Brown.

  6. I Let Them Cool For 5–10 Minutes, Then Add A Pat Of Butter On Top And Air Fry For 1–2 More Minutes Just Until Melted. I Serve Them Warm And Fluffy.

Servings And Timing

This Recipe Makes 3 Biscuits, Perfect For A Small Batch.

  • Prep Time: 10 Minutes

  • Cook Time: 10 Minutes

  • Total Time: 20 Minutes

Variations

  • I Sometimes Swap Cheddar For Pepper Jack Or Gruyère For A Different Cheese Flavor.

  • If I’m Allergic To Coconut, I Use Almond Flour Instead (About 1/2 Cup, Adjust Texture As Needed).

  • I’ve Also Added A Pinch Of Garlic Powder Or Chopped Chives For A More Savory Twist.

  • For A More Bread-Like Texture, I Mix In A Tablespoon Of Sour Cream Along With The Cottage Cheese.

  • I Occasionally Use A Muffin Tin In The Oven At 350°F If I Don’t Feel Like Using The Air Fryer.

Storage/Reheating

I Let The Biscuits Cool Completely Before Storing Them In An Airtight Container In The Fridge For Up To 3 Days.

To Reheat, I Pop Them Back In The Air Fryer At 180°C (350°F) For 2–3 Minutes Until They’re Warm And Crisp On The Outside. I Don’t Recommend Microwaving—It Makes Them Soft And Soggy.

FAQs

Can I Use A Blender Instead Of A Food Processor?

Yes, I’ve Used A Blender When I Don’t Have A Food Processor On Hand—It Works Just As Well To Get The Batter Smooth.

What If I Don’t Have Ramekins?

You Can Use Silicone Muffin Cups Or Just Place The Dough Mounds On Parchment Paper In The Air Fryer Basket, Though The Shape May Vary Slightly.

Are These Biscuits Freezer-Friendly?

Yes, I Freeze Them After Baking And Let Them Cool Completely. When I Want One, I Reheat It In The Air Fryer Straight From Frozen For About 4–5 Minutes.

Can I Make These Without An Air Fryer?

Definitely. I Bake Them In The Oven At 350°F (175°C) For 12–15 Minutes Until Golden Brown And Cooked Through.

How Do I Know When They’re Done?

I Look For A Light Golden Color On Top And A Firm Texture When Pressed Gently. The Sides Should Pull Slightly Away From The Ramekin.

Conclusion

These Keto Cheddar Cottage Cheese Biscuits Are The Ultimate Solution For A Low-Carb, Cheesy Craving. I Love That They’re Quick, Easy, And So Versatile—Equally Good With Eggs For Breakfast Or Alongside A Bowl Of Soup. With Just A Few Ingredients And A Short Cooking Time, I Can Have Warm, Savory Biscuits On The Table In Minutes. It’s One Of Those Recipes I Keep Coming Back To Again And Again.

Description

These cheesy keto biscuits are soft, low-carb, and air fryer-ready—made with cottage cheese, cheddar, and coconut flour for a perfect savory snack or side.

Ingredients

1 large egg (room temperature)

1/4 cup cottage cheese (4% milk fat recommended)

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/2 tablespoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

3 teaspoons butter (divided) or avocado/olive oil spray

Instructions

Preheat air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Add 1 teaspoon of butter to each of 3 ramekins and heat in the air fryer for 3 minutes.

In a food processor, blend the egg and cottage cheese until smooth.

Add cheddar cheese, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Blend until a dough forms.

Use a 1/3 cup measuring scoop to portion the dough into 3 even mounds.

Place each portion into the prepared ramekins. Air fry for 10 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown and set.

Let cool for 5–10 minutes. Add remaining butter on top of each biscuit and return to the air fryer for 1–2 minutes to melt. Serve warm.

Notes

Nut allergy? Use almond flour instead of coconut flour if needed.

Storage: Let biscuits cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

Reheating: For best texture, reheat in the air fryer for 2–3 minutes.

Can also be made in an oven if air fryer is not available; bake at 350°F (180°C) for 12–15 minutes.
