Cheddar Biscuits [0001150]

Ingredients:

2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (or dairy-free alternative), cubed
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup cold buttermilk (or dairy-free alternative)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

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

Add the cold cubed unsalted butter (or dairy-free alternative) to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese (and chopped chives, if using).

In a separate bowl, combine the cold buttermilk (or dairy-free alternative) and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until well mixed.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop portions of the biscuit dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave a little space between each drop.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the gluten-free cheddar biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

These gluten-free cheddar biscuits are wonderfully cheesy and make a fantastic side dish for soups, stews, or as a snack.

Always double-check the labels of your ingredients to ensure they are truly gluten-free if you have gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Enjoy your biscuits!
