The best part? They're drop biscuits, meaning there's no need for rolling or cutting! You just mix the ingredients, drop spoonfuls onto a baking sheet, and bake!

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer add the gluten free flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, buttermilk and eggs. Beat together until all ingredients are incorporated. The dough will be slightly lumpy.

Using a spatula or tablespoon drop even portions of the dough onto the baking sheet leaving room for the biscuits to spread and rise. I make twelve generous sized biscuits with this recipe.

Bake the biscuits at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. The biscuits will be firm and lightly browned on the bottom when done.

If you would like to add some golden color to the top of the biscuits, turn your broiler on high and broil very briefly while watching the biscuits so they don't burn.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a drop biscuit and a rolled biscuit?

These gluten free buttermilk drop biscuits have more liquid in the dough, while rolled biscuits will have a stiff dough with less moisture. A drop biscuit is literally dropped onto the baking sheet using a tablespoon. Rolled biscuits are rolled out and then cut into biscuits before being placed on a baking sheet.

Drop biscuits are a bit less uniform, but easier and quicker to make since you get to skip the step of rolling out and cutting the dough.

What does buttermilk do to biscuits?

Buttermilk reacts with the baking powder and helps the biscuits to rise. You can't replace the buttermilk with regular milk or you won't get a fluffy biscuit that rises in the oven. Buttermilk is more acidic than regular milk and that causes the reaction with the leavening agent.

Notes

I add the pepper for a bit of flavor and spice in the biscuits. If you like your biscuits plain you can omit the black pepper.

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 9-inch with butter or coconut oil and set aside.

In a mixing bowl sift together the gluten free flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer beat together the room temperature butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the egg whites, vanilla extract, almond extract, milk and sour cream. Blend the ingredients together. The mixture will be a bit lumpy.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat together until mostly smooth. You may still have a few small butter lumps in the batter and that is fine.

Pour the cake batter into your greased pans evenly.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. The cakes will be browned, pulled away from the edge of the cake pan and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean when they are done.

Let the cakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then flip them onto a cooling rack to finish cooling. Let the cakes cool completely before frosting. I like to let the cakes cool overnight.
