Carbquik Biscuits
1 1/2 cups Carbquik
1 tsp aluminum free baking powder
1 egg (second time I’ve used an egg with favorable results)
1/4 cup heavy cream, plus 1/4 cup water, mixed
1 tablespoon granulated Truvia, optional
Pinch salt
This is what I did:
First of all I mixed the egg with the cream/water mixture, then added the sweetener and salt. I mixed the Carbquik and baking powder together, then added it into the egg/cream mixture. I stirred until well mixed then dropped onto a buttered pan, and patted them with the back of my spoon some so they would flatten out into a more rounded shape.
I always bake my biscuits hot and fast, on about 425º, so they don’t get hard as a rock. I baked them about 10 minutes or so (think I forgot to time them), until they looked light brown and done. After removing them from the oven, I brushed them with melted butter. I was quite pleased with the flavor, tho they might be a tad sweet for some.
*Note: I’ve found this newest box of Carbquik to be not as salty as previous boxes, which I think helps with the overall flavor. Also, I don’t usually put eggs in my typical high carb biscuits, but have found out they work pretty good in the Carbquik biscuits. … Disclaimer: Some of the links contained in this post are affiliate links.

Why does everyone use heavy cream with Carbquik instead of a non fat milk?
Most low carbers use heavy cream or heavy cream diluted by water because it’s lower in sugar than regular or skim milk. 🙂

Can you reduce the amount of Splenda?
if you mean in the biscuits, yes Splenda is just optional. I wouldn’t normally sweeten my biscuits, but with Carbquick, it just seems to help round out the flavor.
I just made this recipe and subbed some coconut flour for the Carbquick and used about a teaspoon of Splenda and the biscuits turned out great!
