Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the cold buttermilk. Use a fork to stir until the dough starts to come together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
- Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle and use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut out biscuits. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Gently re-roll the dough scraps and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.
- Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
