    Can I make these biscuits gluten free?

    Yes! We made these gluten free many times and they tasted great! The flour blend you use will make a big difference however. We had the best texture and flavor with King Arthur Measure for Measure. The Namaste brand from Costco did not work at all.

    3 ways to store biscuits

    How to Store Biscuits at Room Temperature

    Place in a zip-top bag lined with a paper towel. They will keep at room temperature for 3 days.

    How to Store in the Refrigerator

    Biscuits will keep really well in the refrigerator in a paper towel-lined zip-top bag for up to a week! Feel free to warm in the microwave for 10 seconds before eating.

    How to Freeze Biscuits

    Biscuits will keep well in the freezer! Be sure biscuits are completely cooled. Simply place biscuits in a zip-top bag (no paper towel this time) and place in the freezer. Remove one or two biscuits at a time and reheat in the microwave for 15-30 seconds. They will keep in the freezer for 2-3 months. Be sure to date the bag.
