Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 0.75 cup Buttermilk, cold
• 1 Egg, beaten
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the honey, cold buttermilk, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved.

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into the well.

Step 6

Gently stir the dough with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as the dough will be sticky.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, gently pat the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough over onto itself three times to create layers, then gently flatten again.

Step 8

Using a round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits from the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gather any leftover dough scraps and repeat the process, if needed.

Step 9

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm with additional honey or butter, if desired.
