Directions Rana's Gluten-Free Buttermilk Biscuits
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Whisk flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar together in a large bowl until evenly combined. Add cold butter and shortening and cut in with a pastry cutter until no larger than pea-sized. Make sure the texture is consistent throughout.
Make a well in the center and pour in buttermilk. Stir until just mixed, stirring too much will make the biscuits tough.
Dump onto a lightly floured counter or board and fold dough over onto itself a few times in a kneading manner. Use your hands or a rolling pin to pat or roll to a 1-inch thickness. Gather the edges with your hands to a 1-inch height and smooth them a bit. Cut 10 biscuits with a biscuit cutter or a glass and transfer to a cookie sheet. Transfer any remaining scraps to a second cookie sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden on top, about 12 minutes.
