Gluten free biscuit recipe
Find the best gluten free biscuit recipe for your gluten free diet. Gluten free biscuits can be made from scratch or with a gluten free mix. I think baking them fresh is better but when you're in a hurry use a mix.
Basic Gluten free biscuit: 
- 1 cup sorghum flour
- 3/4 cup GF Flour Blend
- 1/4 cup Sweet Rice Flour
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup shortening -- cubed
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
Crack egg into large measuring cup. Add milk to make 2/3 cup of liquid. Lightly beat together. Set aside. Sift all dry ingredients. Place in food processor. Pulse in cubed shortening. Add milk/egg mixture. Pulse until dough is formed. I usually wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill 1 hour or overnight, but you could roll or pat it out right away and use a biscuit cutter to cut biscuits. Place on baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 min. I usually brush melted butter on them the last couple of minutes. This helps them to brown a little bit better. _________________________________________________________________ Chocolate Gluten free biscuit recipe: Ingredients: makes 20 biscuits - 1 oz or 25g cocoa powder
