Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for slight sweetness)
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 all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the milk and honey (if using). Stir to mix well.
Step 5
Slowly pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a fork or spatula until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface (using gluten-free flour) and pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
Step 7
Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll any scraps and continue cutting until all the dough is used.
Step 8
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with butter, jam, or your favorite toppings!
