Gluten Free Cheddar Biscuits

Image
We recently ate at a seafood restaurant that has really good garlic cheese biscuits, and my daughter told me that she likes my cheese biscuits better! I hadn’t made them for a long time, so after receiving her compliment (smart girl, my daughter), I felt compelled to make a batch. I’ll admit, they’re not really as good as biscuits made with wheat, but there’re not bad. They certainly disappeared fast. Gluten Free Cheddar Biscuits ¾ cup white rice flour ½ cup tapioca flour ½ cup cornstarch 2 tsp. xanthan gum 1 Tbls. sugar 2 tsp. baking powder ½ tsp. baking soda ¾ tsp. salt ¼ cup shortening ¾ cup milk 1 egg white 2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Combine milk and slightly beaten egg white. Mix into dry ingredients and cheese. Drop onto greased baking sheet and bake about 15 minutes.
