Notes
If you’re craving the deliciousness of Butter Swim Biscuits but need a gluten-free option don’t worry! The secret, to making them as tasty lies, in selecting the right gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. Look for one that has xanthan gum, which acts like gluten and helps give your biscuits their structure and softness. Just keep in mind that gluten-free flours can absorb liquids differently so you might need a buttermilk to get your dough just right.
