Fluffy Biscuits – Low Carb | Induction Friendly | Sorta-Page 4 Friendly
Notes
This simple Low Carb Southern Biscuit recipe is so quick and easy to make. The shortcut is always making sure to have a bag or two of pork rinds made into crumbs, waiting to go. Process the skins into crumbs in the food processor. The measurements in recipes, for pork rind crumbs, are always–after processing into crumbs measurements! And you get a huge low carb biscuit for 2g of Net Effective Carbs (fiber grams subtracted from total carb count). If that’s too high for you, these could easily make 3 smaller biscuits!
These Fluffy Biscuits are Atkins Induction friendly, but present a shade of gray if following Dr. Westman’s Page 4 plan. Psyllium husks and protein powder are not included on Dr. W’s Page 4, although Metamucil is included. So Fluffy Chix Cook loosely extrapolates that whole psyllium husks would be ok as a Page 4 ingredient. We’re not concerned with using 1 teaspoon of protein powder (buy it in the bulk bin in tiny amounts) in a recipe.
But if you want to be completely compliant with Dr. Westman’s Page 4–simply sub out 2 tablespoons of shredded part skim mozzarella cheese for the protein powder called for in the recipe. The protein powder (and shredded mozzarella cheese as a sub for protein powder) adds structure and volume to the biscuit batter.

So if you sub out the protein powder for the cheese (like I’m hoping to do) you’re saying they won’t rise as much? Hoping not to get hockey pucks….. 🙂
No, I’m hoping I’m not saying that. I’ll go re-read the recipe. It should work fine? Please let me know, ok? I didn’t test the mozz. I just know I often sub it for protein powder in my recipes when I am out of it!
I will definitely give it a try — to me structure and volume = rise and airyness in baking. I may well have misinterpreted….wouldn’t be the first time! I’ll let you know. Thanks!
Yes, your definition fits mine as well. It was a mistake on my part. Thanks for asking for clarification! I just went in and edited the recipe to be a bit more clear! TY! xoxo.
Susie, I know part of the purpose of using the microwave is for ease and quickness, but do you know if this biscuit will bake in the regular oven successfully as well? I’m wondering about maybe doubling the recipe and then baking in a mini muffin pan. I love having little bready bites on hand sometimes too!
The recipe as written, however, I’ll be making later today!
Also, congrats on the new roost! It’s beeyouteeful!
Hugs,
Alice
Alice would you try it and see? Typically, what I’ve found is that they “may rise”, but they won’t have that gorgeous, explosive puff they get from the micro. 🙁 But let me know how it works, ok? Maybe add a bit more baking powder? TY! Muah. xoxo!
Yes, I’ll try baking in the oven. Meanwhile, i just made the micro version and they were wonderful! I ate both… Along with 2 fried eggs! Delish! I’m full!
Thank you, Miss Susie!!
So glad you liked them!!
xoxo
Damn i wish I could find pork rinds here, I really really want to try this one 🙁
Awwww sweetie! When are you coming to Porland? Order 2 cases and ship them home!!! 😉 (Just tryin’ to think OOTB (out of the box)! ((hugs))

Just made these and I am quite happy with how they turned out. My question (because, of course, somebody has to kvetch), is can we successfully replace sour cream with full fat mayo? Asking because FFM is zero carb and would dramatically lessen the total carb count on these so I can enjoy with abandon……!
Rita sweety, all of Fluffy Chix Cook recipes are open for tweaking! Make those bad boys your own! 😀 I don’t see any reason FFM wouldn’t work. Othes have been been successfully using FFM on Revolution rolls for the 14 years I’ve been making ’em! So try it, then run back here quickly and share your results with the class! 😀 😉 Purty please?
