Gluten Free Cream Biscuits

Cultural Context

Cream biscuits are a classic American breakfast staple, known for their tender, flaky texture. Traditionally made with cream, they are quick to prepare and perfect for brunch or as a side for savory dishes. The gluten-free adaptation allows those with dietary restrictions to enjoy this comforting treat, making it a popular choice in modern kitchens.

easy
6 servings
Servings4
2 cups gluten-free all purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon sea salt or pink salt
½ cup salted butter, cold and cubed (for vegan see notes below)
¾ cup buttermilk, plus extra for brushing (for vegan see notes below)

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil offers a dairy-free option while keeping texture similar.

1

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Set aside.

2

In a large mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir well.

3

Add the cold butter and using a dough blender, fork or your hands, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4

Add the milk to the flour mixture and gently stir until a dough forms. Knead with your hands a few times, until you are able to form a ball of dough.

5

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a countertop or cutting board.

6

Place the dough onto the parchment paper. Using your hands, gently pat the dough into a 1-inch thick square or rectangle.

7

Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, round cookie cutter or even the rim of a glass, cut the biscuits out of the dough. Gather the scraps of dough, pat out and repeat the process until you've used as much of the dough as you can.

8

Place the biscuits onto your parchment paper-covered baking sheet. Brush the tops with milk and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are turning golden brown.

Enjoy!
