Truth be told, I’ve never been a huge fan of biscuits. I kinda feel like there are two people: people from the South who grew up eating sausage gravy over biscuits, and people from the North who grew up eating cream chipped ham over toast. I fall into the latter category. Except when I went to my best friend’s family’s vacation to Myrtle Beach every year when I was a kid. Then I was all over some sausage gravy and biscuits.

Truth be told again, these aren’t those large, fluffy, white biscuits you find in the south. These are crumbly, buttery and delicious. They go great with soup, which is what we’ve been eating them with. I also discovered that they’re PERFECT for breakfast sandwiches. Throw a fried egg, some bacon or sausage, maybe even some grass-fed and raw cheese (if you eat dairy) on these suckers and you’ve got an awesome breakfast.

Tip: they harden a bit after sitting in the fridge. This makes them better for sandwiches, but not as flaky for dipping into soup.

Is a half a stick of butter 4 oz or 2 oz? I ask because Kerrygold butter is 8oz and half a stick is 4oz. But if you are using traditional butter stick measurements (4 oz bars) it would be 2oz. Thank you and I can’t wait to try these!

  I used 1/4 Kerrygold, or 1/2 a stick of regular butter.

Think it would be okay to use coconut flour in place of the tapioca flour (don’t have any on hand)?

  Unfortunately not, coconut flour is very dry.
