Ingredients

• 180 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
• 150 grams Unsalted butter, room temperature
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the vanilla extract and salt to the butter mixture and beat until combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the gluten-free all-purpose flour to the butter mixture, beating on low speed until the dough just comes together.

Step 5

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface (using gluten-free flour) and gently knead it a few times until smooth.

Step 6

Roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out biscuits, re-rolling the scraps as needed.

Step 7

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each one.

Step 8

Prick the top of each biscuit with a fork to prevent them from rising unevenly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are light golden brown.

Step 10

Let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
