Now that you’ve learned the basics of how to bake delicious gluten free biscuits, here are some additional recipes that will complement the biscuits or take them to a whole new level.
Biscuit Gravies:
Biscuits are delicious for breakfast anytime, but if you’re making them for a special occasion you may want to serve a gravy as well. Sawmill gravy is a white gravy made from butter, gluten free flour, and cream. It’s not something that you should eat every day, but I love it as a special treat. It’s especially good with sausage patties.
Redeye gravy is another favorite if you’re planning on serving country ham for breakfast. I love this on my biscuit and on top of my grits!
You can also serve biscuits for supper and top them with a tomato gravy. Here’s a traditional recipe (just use GF flour w/o xanthan gum) and a gluten free, dairy free version.
Little Bites:
Small meat sandwiches make a frequent appearance at dinner buffets and receptions. They would also make a great addition to your next party when you serve them on flaky biscuits. Try ham biscuits with Jezebel sauce or pork loin or roast beef with mustard horseradish sauce.
Do you ever wish for a scone to go with your afternoon coffee or tea? You can have it now, because a scone is just a sweetened tender biscuit. Here is my recipe for fresh blueberry scones. My basic scone recipe is included in our e-book along with 12 different flavoring options.
Supper:
Chicken Pot Pie with a Biscuit Crust is easy. Just make a half recipe of the tender biscuits recipe and add an extra 3/4 c. of milk to the dough. This will then the dough out and you can simply spoon it on top of the pot pie filling. Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees and supper will be ready.
Dessert:
Biscuits or scones are delicious when topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream to make Strawberry Shortcake. Use my biscuit or scone recipe, and then top it off with the strawberries and cream from this recipe.
You can also make an easy fruit cobbler using the trick I showed you for Chicken Pot Pie. Use your favorite cobbler recipe, but for the top crust use a half recipe of tender biscuits plus 3/4 c. milk. This will be enough topping for a 9 x 13 dish.
I am just drooling thinking about these ideas!!
