Can you make them ahead of time?
These biscuits are at their best served warm, straight out of the oven. Once cooled, you can transfer them to an airtight container and will keep fresh for 2 days.
In the fridge they will keep well for 5 days. Reheat the biscuits gently in the oven to serve.
Can you freeze gluten free biscuits?
If you can’t get through your batch of gluten-free biscuits, freezing is a great option. Wrap the cooled biscuits individually in plastic wrap or foil and place in a freezer bag.
The biscuits will keep well for 3 months and can be thawed at room temperature.

Gluten Free Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe
Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 20 minutes
Total: 30 minutes
These gluten free buttermilk biscuits are melt in your mouth good! Perfect to enjoy with gravy or topped with butter and honey, or serve as a side with your favorite chili.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Spray a baking sheet and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the gluten free flour blend, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles crumbs. Mix in the buttermilk until it forms a dough.
Sprinkle a cutting board or a flat surface with gluten free flour and turn the biscuit dough out onto it and knead just until it is fully combined. Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten dough into a ½ inch thick rectangle, sprinkle it with just a little bit of flour (too much flour will cause the layers to fall apart later). Fold the dough back on itself and press together and out again into another rectangle this time about 1 inch thick. Repeat the sprinkle of flour and folding the dough one more time and roll it out about 2 inches thick . This helps create layers in the biscuits.
Using a cup or a biscuit cutter, press straight down into the dough to cut out biscuits. Do not rock the cup or biscuit cutter side to side when cutting the biscuits as it will seal the layers closed. Place biscuits onto prepared baking sheet and place in the oven to bake for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits have browned.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy with gluten free gravy, jam or butter and honey!
