Low-Carb Strawberry Biscuits
While keto requires limiting your fruit intake, a handful of strawberries fits perfectly into your macros, especially when used sparingly in recipes like these biscuits.
The mildly sweet biscuit base complements the fresh or frozen strawberries beautifully, and the sugar-free lemon glaze adds the perfect balance of tartness and sweetness.

- Fresh or frozen sliced strawberries: no need to defrost if using frozen
- Almond flour
- Coconut flour
- Granulated sugar-substitute
- Confectioner’s sugar-substitute
- Eggs, room temperature
- Sour Cream
- Butter
- Cast-iron skillet or baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper
How To Make Keto Strawberry Biscuits
To make these low-carb strawberry biscuits, start by melting the butter and allowing it to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter with the eggs and granulated sugar substitute, mixing well.
Next, add the sour cream and lemon extract to the wet ingredients and stir until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder into the same bowl, mixing until you have a smooth batter.
Gently fold in the fresh or frozen sliced strawberries, being careful not to break them up too much to keep some texture in the biscuits.
Using a spoon, drop the batter onto a greased cast iron skillet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming about ten biscuits.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the sugar-free lemon glaze by whisking together the confectioner’s sugar substitute, fresh lemon juice, lemon extract, and a small splash of heavy cream until smooth and pourable.
Once the biscuits have cooled slightly, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top and serve.
Store leftovers in an airtight container the refrigerator for up to five days or freeze for up to three weeks.
The Best Sugar-Substitute For These Keto Biscuits
When it comes to choosing which sugar substitute to use for these low-carb biscuits, I have several for you to choose from.
Would you like to save this?
My go-to choice is Lakanto Monk Fruit because the texture is spot on, and there is barely any aftertaste.
It’s a monk fruit and erythritol blend. Monk fruit gets its sweetness from antioxidants called mogrosides, instead of fructose or sucrose.
That’s why it's such a wonderful all-natural sugar substitute and has zero calories and zero glycemic impact.
I’m also partial to Swerve, an erythritol blend. Unlike other natural sweeteners like stevia, it has no bitter aftertaste and measures just like sugar.
It's made from ingredients found in select fruits and starchy root vegetables and contains no artificial ingredients, preservatives, or flavors.
Swerve is the name brand of erythritol, and it's unlike other sugar alcohols because it has a 0% impact on blood sugar.
You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure for most of my baked goods.
But if using Pyure, you will want to use half the amount called for in this recipe since it's much sweeter. ¼ cup is enough if using this sweetener.
Lastly, if you can’t easily find a more natural sugar substitute, you can also use Splenda with great success.
Although Splenda is not an all-natural sugar substitute, in my opinion, it's still better than real sugar.
I recommend it because not everyone has easy access to the more natural substitutes, plus it is at a price point that most can afford.
However, when it comes to the sugar-free icing for these strawberry biscuits, you will have to use a confectioner’s sugar substitute. Both Lakanto and Swerve have great ones.
