biscuits!!

the day i made this simple biscuit recipe, my roommates had just bought brand new cookie cutters that i could use before they glutified them. yay! not only were they tasty, but they were also cute!
these make a great quick snack with preserves, margarine, or with dinner

biscuits
  • 1 1/4 cup brown rice flour
  • 1/2 cup potato starch (NOT potato flour)
  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch (also known as tapioca flour)
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • 3/4 plus 2 tablespoon milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup soy-free margarine
PREHEAT oven to 425 degrees
line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper
in medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, starch, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg
add the 3/4 cup milk, and mix well with wooden spoon
mix in the margarine with your hands, until fully combined
add remaining milk, mix with spoon
roll the dough on a clean floured surface, and cut out any shape you like, until all the dough is used.
bake for 12-15 minutes, until slightly golden
let cool on baking sheets 5 minutes before removing to cool or eat
