Creating fluffy and cozy gluten-free biscuits is an uncomplicated process if you follow these steps:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- Add Butter: Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and honey (if using) until well combined.
- Mix Together: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry mix, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Shape the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat it into a ¾-inch thick rectangle.
- Cut Out Biscuits: Use a biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather and reshape any leftover dough to make more biscuits.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- Cool: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
These steps will ensure a batch of wonderfully fluffy gluten-free biscuits that everyone will love!
