Total Time:25 minutes
Yield:8 biscuits
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
1/4 cup cold butter (or dairy-free alternative)
3/4 cup milk (or non-dairy milk)
Instructions
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it is hot enough for the biscuits to rise and bake evenly.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute all the dry ingredients.
Cut in Butter: Add the cold butter or dairy-free alternative to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter.
Incorporate Milk: Pour the milk or non-dairy milk into the crumb mixture. Stir gently until the dough comes together without overmixing to avoid toughness.
Shape Biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them apart so they have room to spread while baking.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
Use cold butter for flakier biscuits; you can substitute with a dairy-free butter alternative for a vegan option.
Do not overmix the dough to keep the biscuits tender and fluffy.
For a crispier bottom, bake on a preheated baking stone or cast iron skillet.
Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey for best flavor.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven.
