These 5-ingredient gluten-free biscuits are simple enough for beginners and are on the table in no time!

Ingredients

Scale

3 cups (360 grams) gluten-free Measure-For-Measure flour (we recommend King Arthur), weighed or scooped and leveled**
2 Tablespoons baking powder
1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups (670 grams) plain full-fat Greek yogurt* (do NOT use regular or low-fat yogurt!)
1 Tablespoon melted butter, for brushing the tops (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. & line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk to combine.
Add yogurt and use a spatula to mix the yogurt into the dry ingredients until it starts to come together.
Turn out the dough onto a clean countertop (it’ll still be pretty dry and might not seem cohesive–don’t panic!).
Use your hands to knead and mix the dough until it comes together in a ball.
Cut the dough into 12 equal portions (I like to cut the dough into 4 pieces (quarters), then cut each quarter into 3 pieces. You can also weigh the dough and divide it by 12 to weigh each biscuit portion to be equal)
Use your hands to form each portion of dough into a ball, then pat it out into a cylinder biscuit shape, about 1″ thick.
Place biscuit on prepared baking sheet and repeat until all 12 biscuits have been formed.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter.
Bake at 425 degrees F. for 18-20 minutes or until very golden.
Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature 2-3 days, or freeze up to 2 months.

Notes

*We’ve had good success with Fage brand and Chobani. Again, be sure to use plain FULL FAT (usually labeled full-fat or 5%) GREEK STYLE yogurt.

**We highly recommend weighing your flour when possible for the most accurate results. If you can’t weigh it, be sure to use the scoop and level method for the most accurate measure. Using too much flour can make the biscuits dry or gummy. Even an extra tablespoon can make a big difference in texture.
