Flaky, golden, and rich with real butter flavor, these drop biscuits are the kind of comfort food that feels like it shouldn't be possible on a restricted diet — but here they are, and they deliver. A simple mix of gluten free flour blend, cold butter, and a quick homemade buttermilk made from milk and apple cider vinegar gives you that classic tender crumb and slightly crisp exterior without any wheat in sight. The drop method means no rolling, no cutting, and no fuss — just eight rustic mounds of dough straight onto the baking sheet and into a hot oven. Cold butter worked into the flour is the real secret here; those little pea-sized pieces melt during baking and create the layers and lift you'd expect from a traditional biscuit. Each serving keeps the milk portion well within a gut-friendly range, so you get all the richness without the worry. A brush of melted butter right out of the oven is optional, but honestly, don't skip it. These are perfect alongside soup, eggs, or just eaten warm with a little extra butter while nobody's watching.
