🧾 Ingredients 🧾
2 cups gluten free flour
1 tablespoon gluten free baking powder
1.5 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
1 large egg
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon gluten free flour for dusting surface
Optionally:
Melted butter for brushing on tops of biscuits
👨🍳 Instructions 👨🍳
1) Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and line a sheet tray with parchment paper.
2) Grate 1 stick of cold unsalted butter (8 tablespoons). Place the grated butter in the freezer to chill while you prepare the wet and dry ingredients.
3) In a small bowl, combine the milk, egg, and lemon juice. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
4) In a large bowl, combine the gluten free flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar. Whisk thoroughly to combine.
5) Add the frozen grated butter into the bowl with the flour mixture. Using your fingers, toss the grated butter in the flour, then use your fingers to gently smoosh the butter into the flour to create thin flakes of butter coated in the flour mixture.
Notes: If the butter becomes too warm, place the entire bowl in the freezer to chill before proceeding to the next step.
6) Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and, using a spatula, gently mix until the dough just begins to come together.
7) On a clean countertop, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of gluten free flour to create a light dusting across your work surface.
8) Pour the dough onto the counter. Using the palms of your hands, gently begin pressing and turning the dough until it holds its shape and forms a disc. Continue gently pressing down on the top of the dough until the thickness of the disc is about 1 inch.
9) Using a biscuit cutter, press straight down into the dough and pull straight out. Do not twist the cutter, as this ensures that the edges of the biscuits do not get crimped, which would prevent them from properly rising.
10) Place the cut biscuits onto the prepared parchment lined sheet tray.
11) You can reuse the dough scraps by gently pressing, turning, and cutting again until all of the dough is used.
12) Bake the biscuits at 450 degrees for 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
13) Remove from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter.
