Directions
Gluten Free Buttermilk Biscuits,These biscuits combine an adaptation of Roben Ryberg’s biscuit ingredients from The Gluten-Free Kitchen with Cooks Illustrated’s method for making biscuits. These are very white…if you liked the white, spongy things that you could buy at Kentucky Fried Chicken, you’ll like these. Lately I’ve been substituting 1-1/4 cups brown rice flour mix for the two starches. It turns out really good with a little less white and a little more nutrition.,Honestly… I think that people here (that are giving good reviews) forget what GOOD real-gluten-bread counterparts taste like. I made this recipe as stated, and (I shouldn’t have been surprised), they had the flavour of shortbread cookies. KFC biscuits? Yeah, right! Seriously… what is wrong with people’s taste buds?! Then I tried another commenter’s suggestion and used 1 cup rice flour 1/4 cup cornstarch. Well… those barely rose and turned out dry and crumbly. Ugh… on to search for another recipe again…,I have made these dozens of times now, using whatever flour I have and they are always perfect. I make them in a 9 inch cast iron skillet, 6 biscuits fit perfect almost touching and rise nicely this way. When I don’t have xanthan gum I have learned that I can use an equal amount of ground psyllium husk with excellent results. I always have to cook them for about 20 minutes.
