taylorashleyd Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 http://www.justjessieb.com/2013/10/cauliflower-biscuits-with-bacon-jalapeno.html A member of a Facebook group posted this recipe which is tagged as Whole30 by the author. I am thinking not compliant because of the almond flour, but was hoping for an official ruling. Thoughts? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlocs1021 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 almond flour is ok by whole 30 standards.....I would think this is more of the SWYPO tho...kinda similar to the reasoning behind no pancakes, perhaps a moderator can comment on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylorashleyd Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 I was thinking the flour made it a recreation of a baked good, not that the flour was not compliant in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlocs1021 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 yes exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmary Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 yeah. no biscuits during the whole30. If you want cauliflower with jalapeño and bacon, make a skillet hash with these ingredients, don't add almond flour and form them into biscuits.

Robin1403 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I know this thread is old but I'm confused as to why Well Fed's oven fried salmon "cakes" are Whole 30 approved but cauliflower "biscuits" are not. Basically the only difference between the recipes is that one has salmon and one has cauliflower. Just trying to understand where the line is here. Thanks for any input.

MeadowLily Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 http://whole30.com/2014/10/sex-pants/ Paleo biscuits and Paleo pizza crust are throwback reminders of bread. Using alternative flours to make a bread formation is a SWYPO. http://whole30.com/2011/10/sex-with-your-pants-on/ "Experientially, we’d be surprised if you don’t learn something from the experience of abstaining from your breads and muffins for 30 days. If you decide to return to them after your Whole30 is done, that’s completely your choice! Best of luck to you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read above, you'll see the answer: no recreating baked goods. In addition, no foods which might be considered SWYPO or foods without brakes.

KaraH Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Just my thoughts: A "biscuit" is an effort to make a breadlike product. A salmon patty/salmon cake is not really a "cake". It's a type of croquette. Croquettes or patties or cakes can be modified by removing the breadcrumbs to make them compliant, but you're not recreating a forbidden food. Just as an example, this is a typical salmon cake/croquette recipe:http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/salmon-cakes-recipe.html If you take that recipe and remove the Worcestershire and the bread, you have an item that is 100% Whole30 compliant. You're not recreating anything or trying to make the salmon into something it's not. It's still a croquette, just a breadless one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
