The history of the Cherry Almond Biscuit is a long and winding one, dating back to the early days of the American frontier. Settlers in the Midwest and Great Plains often had to make do with what they had on hand, and that often meant using local ingredients like almonds and cherries. These biscuits were a staple of the frontier diet, and they were often served with other simple dishes like fried potatoes and bacon. Over time, the Cherry Almond Biscuit became a beloved classic, and it is still enjoyed by many people today.
