Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cold
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 large Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and xanthan gum until well combined.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture.

Step 4

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, mix the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, honey, and egg until well blended.

Step 6

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be sure not to overmix, to keep the biscuits fluffy.

Step 7

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat it to about 1-inch thickness.

Step 8

Using a biscuit cutter or a round glass, cut out biscuits from the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are close but not touching each other.

Step 9

Gather the remaining dough, pat it down again, and cut out additional biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 10

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings.
