Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold and diced)
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and xanthan gum. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they are well mixed.
Add the cold, diced unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk and honey until the honey is fully dissolved.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the buttermilk-honey mixture into it. Stir gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
Using a biscuit cutter or a sharp knife, cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are touching slightly for best results.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits have risen.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm.
