    Roben Ryberg's Biscuits (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    This recipe is a sampling from a new cookbook tentatively titled The Gluten-Free Baker by Roben Ryberg, scheduled for publication in the spring of 1999.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Roben Ryberg: This dough is great fun to work with. My kids like to play with the scraps. This dough is quite soft, and so are the biscuits.

    Ingredients:

    1/3 cup shortening
    ½ cup potato starch
    ¾ cup cornstarch
    1 ¾ teaspoon xanthan gum
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    ¼ teaspoon baking soda
    1 tablespoon sugar
    ¾ cup milk
    ½ teaspoon salt

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 375 . In medium bowl, blend all ingredients. Mix very well to remove any lumps. Dough will be quite soft and a bit sticky. Roll or pat our dough on a lightly floured (cornstarch) surface. Dough should be about ½ inch thick. Cut out biscuits with 2 ½ inch cookie cutters. An inverted glass will also do the job. Place biscuits on lightly-greased baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned.

    Makes 6-8 large biscuits.

    We tried these biscuits with strawberries and whipped cream. The results were amazing.

    I thought they tasted strange, but my gluten intolerant kids loved them, so I guess they will be made again. Think they would taste great with berries, kids liked it with the stew I made. Will make again.

    I have made this recipe several times recently, but I make one change. I substitute 1 - 1 1/4 cups of whipping cream for the milk and shortening that is called for in the original recipe. Makes a tender and delicious biscuit.

    I've been looking for a good pastry recipe to go with stew and this recipe definitely delivered. It has been two years since i have made this dish because I had no gluten-free pastry that did not fall flat or taste gritty. Thank you Robyn! Even my husband thought it was great.

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Serving Size: 12
    1 cup sorghum flour
    ¾ cup gluten-free Flour Blend
    ¼ cup Sweet Rice Flour
    1 teaspoon xanthan gum
    2 teaspoons sugar
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
    ¼ teaspoon salt
    ½ cup shortening -- cubed
    1 egg
    ½ cup milk
    Crack egg into large measuring cup. Add milk to make 2/3 cup of liquid. Lightly beat together. Set aside. Sift all dry ingredients. Place in food processor. Pulse in cubed shortening. Add milk/egg mixture. Pulse until dough is formed. I usually wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill 1 hour or overnight, but you could roll or pat it out right away and use a biscuit cutter to cut biscuits. Place on baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 min. I usually brush melted butter on them the last coupl...

    This recipe comes to us from Nina.
    Makes 18 - 20 buns.
    Use the bread/roll recipe below, adding more flour (a little at time) in order to make the dough more workable. Then, roll the dough out on a floured board with floured saran wrap on the top. Make a large rectangle (approx. 14 x 20). Then lift the saran wrap, dot the dough w/butter and sprinkle w/a lot of cinnamon/sugar and raisons. Then, carefully roll it up the long way (It will be challenging) . Place the seam on the bottom. With a very sharp knife or non-flavored dental floss, cut slices approximately ¾ wide. Place the pinwheels on a buttered cookie tray. When the come out of the oven, I top them with a confectioner sugar glaze. Quite Yummy (easily freezable)!

      Hey all!

      Thank you! I’m currently the breadwinner as my husband is pursuing a finance degree so the nights that I am at work they can eat whatever my husband makes but when I am home we have gluten free meals and no complaints so far! I definitely don’t have a choice but to switch but I think slowly transitioning my family is good!😀

      Hey all!

      Welcome aboard, @Savannah Wert! There usually is a learning curve involved in arriving at a consistently gluten free diet since gluten is found in so many food products where you would never expect it to be. This article may be helpful: It is good that you have identified some other foods that you cannot tolerate at this point as this is so common...

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      I don't react the same way to all of them but do react badly to many of them where others may not. I also have a touch of hypochondria so when the labs come back too high or makes me anxious. I am dismayed but not really surprised that I may be in the small group of people to suffer a particular side effect. I was originally on warfirin. I think that was...

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      What do you mean when you say, "blood thinners are all the same to me"? Do you mean you react negatively in the same way to all of them? Otherwise, they are not all the same. They work in different ways. Aspirin causes the platelets to be less sticky. Warfarin and related meds work by reducing the production of platelets. You might talk to your doctor about...
