Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Honey
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and honey until well combined.
Step 5
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. Gently stir with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough over itself in thirds like a letter, and then again into a rectangle.
Step 7
Repeat the folding process two more times to create flaky layers.
Step 8
Gently roll out the dough to a 1-inch thickness. Use a 2.5-inch round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting to maintain the flaky layers.
Step 9
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, about an inch apart.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
