1 3/4 cups white rice flour
1/2 cup brown rice flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. white Sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. Xantham gum (This can be skipped if you don't have it, but it makes the consistency quite lovely.)
Optional: Herbs and spices, such as garlic and onion powders.
Optional: If you have no brown rice flour, substitute 1/2 cup white rice flour.

Wet Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter and oil (to total 1/3 cup)
1 cup milk
1 egg
(Optional: Grated cheese)

Preheat oven to 400°F

Mix dry ingredients; (Optional: add spices or herbs here.)

Mix in butter with pie crust cutter. Stir in oil. Stir in milk until you get the consistency desired. Stir in egg. (Optional: Mix in grated cheese).

Dough should be stiff enough so that it can be shaped slightly. If it isn't, try adding more rice flour. (Optional: If the dough is stiff enough, you can tuck things like sausages in, like pigs in blankets.)

Bake at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes.

I have a gluten intolerance so biscuits have been off limits. However, I have been craving biscuits for a while now and these really hit the spot!

Very light and fluffy but I used coconut oil for a healthier biscuit.

My wife and I are gluten intolerant and we have tried many biscuit recipes. This is by far the best and probably even better than regular biscuits.

Just tried this recipe for lunch because we had rice flour and little else. Delicious!! I didn't even add the Xantham gum. Very simple, good recipe.

 Paula Simmons (California) says:
This is my go to biscuit recipe. I find the texture improves with the use of egg replacer. I use it with a chicken pot pie casserole dropping this batter on top of the "chicken pot pie" mix, fruit cobbler, again dropping this mix on top of stewed fruit and baked in casserole. Greenwick if you have any other gluten and yeast free recipes I'd like to know about them.

These are amazing! I have recently discovered that I am gluten intolerant. I have missed the taste of biscuits and breads an am slowly finding recipes I like. If anyone out there has a brownie recipe, please share! I will make these again for sure.

Does anyone know what I can substitute oil and margarine with? I am unable to metabolise oil so this will help.

 Southern Gluten-Free Cook (Alabama) replies:
Try substituting applesauce for the oil/butter. You may have to adjust the amount of flour or liquid, but it should work.

 Stephanie Tedder (Florida) says:
I just found out I am allergic to almost all foods. I can only have meat and spinach. I can have Rice milk, cane sugar, vanilla, Buckwheat, gluten free White rice. I can not have Brewers & Bakers yeast, oats, or Malt. I found your recipe for these biscuits and I am hoping you may have more recipes with Rice Flour that I can try. I am very limited on what to eat.

I bake mine a bit longer than 10 to 15 minutes if I make them larger.
