Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.75 cup Buttermilk, cold
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, combine the honey, cold buttermilk, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into the well.
Gently stir the dough with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as the dough will be sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, gently pat the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough over onto itself three times to create layers, then gently flatten again.
Using a round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits from the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gather any leftover dough scraps and repeat the process, if needed.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with additional honey or butter, if desired.
