I made garlic and cheese biscuits on Sunday, and they turned out buttery, delicious and all-around amazing!  The recipe made exactly nine good-sized biscuits (using my 2 oz scooper).  Best part of all, these biscuits weigh in at about 1 net carb per biscuit.  
I used one biscuit to make a sausage, egg and cheese sandwich (which was great), and the rest I crumbled and set aside to use in a stuffing for roasted chicken.  The coconut flour gave the recipe a true biscuit texture, with plenty of body and good crumble.  Thanks to the copious quantities of butter, garlic, and cheese, you couldn't taste the coconut flavor very much - even my husband liked them (and he is not a coconut fan). Quite simply, these were to die for, and I consider this recipe one of my top LCHF recipes to date.  I am now trying to think of several recipes that I miss where I can switch them in for traditional bread.  Here's the recipe:
Buttery Garlic and Cheddar Biscuits
Ingredients 
- ¼ cup butter, melted and slightly cooled
 - 1/3 cup sifted Coconut Flour
 - 4 eggs
 - ¼ teaspoon salt
 - ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
 - ¼ teaspoon baking powder
 - 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
 
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
 - Line a cookie sheet with foil, and grease.
 - Whisk together eggs, butter, salt, and garlic powder.
 - Add coconut flour and baking powder and whisk until there are no lumps.
 - Fold in cheese.
 - Drop batter by the 2 oz scoop onto greased cookie sheet.
 - Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
 - Let cool in pan for 5-10 minutes before removing and serving. Make sure that biscuits are completely cool before storage or they won't stay crisp!
