GLUTEN FREE FLUFFY TEA BISCUITS
2 Cups Flour (I use PC GF Flour) Similar flours: King Arthur GF, and BetterBatter
1/4 Cup Shortening
4 Tsp. GF baking powder (I prefer Fleischmann's GF Baking Powder)
2 Tbsp. Sugar
1 Tsp. Salt
1 Egg
1 Cup Milk (I use lactose free milk)
Method:
Mix together flour, shortening, baking powder, sugar, and salt with a pastry cutter until shortening is in pea sized bits. Mix in egg and milk. Mix together and let sit for 2-3 minutes.
Put a bit of flour on board and roll dough in it, until covered on all sides, then pat down with your hand but leave fairly thick (Don't use a rolling pin, it takes out too much of the fluffiness).
Cook in 390 Degree oven for 14 minutes. (Or until your biscuits are golden brown on top).
Yum....
