Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and powdered sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the butter mixture, beating until well incorporated.
Gradually add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, mixing on low speed until combined. The dough should come together and be smooth.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface (using gluten-free flour) and shape it into a disk.
Roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Gather the remaining scraps, re-roll, and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.
Chill the cut-out biscuits in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to help them hold their shape during baking.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your gluten-free shortbread biscuits as a delightful treat!
