These 5 Ingredient Gluten Free Drop Biscuits are a quick and easy recipe perfect for those following a gluten-free diet. Made with simple pantry staples and whole milk, these biscuits are tender, fluffy, and golden brown on top. They’re baked in a skillet for convenience and brushed with butter for extra flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups Gluten Free Flour (Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1)
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Cold Butter (cubed)
  • 1 cup Whole Milk

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the gluten free flour, baking powder, and salt to a food processor. Pulse 2-3 times to thoroughly blend the dry ingredients together.
  2. Add Butter: Cut the cold butter into chunks and add it to the dry mixture in the food processor. Pulse several times until the butter pieces are about the size of small peas. Then, transfer this mixture into a bowl.
  3. Mix in Milk: Pour 3/4 cup of the whole milk into the bowl and use your hands to gently combine the dough. Add the remaining milk as needed until the dough is soft and not too sticky, forming a workable biscuit dough.
  4. Shape Biscuits: Using a 1/4 cup measure, drop 10 biscuits evenly spaced into a well-greased 8-inch skillet.
  5. Bake Biscuits: Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven at 450°F (232°C) for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  6. Finish with Butter: Remove the biscuits from the oven and brush the tops with extra butter if desired for added richness and shine.

Notes

  • Use cold butter to ensure flaky, tender biscuits.
  • Gluten free flours can vary, so adjust the milk quantity as needed to form the right dough consistency.
  • The 8-inch skillet should be well greased to prevent sticking and help achieve a crisp bottom.
  • The high oven temperature helps the biscuits rise quickly and brown nicely.
  • These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated gently in the oven.
