In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease, and since then it has become an invaluable resource to people worldwide who seek information about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet.
In 1998 I created The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore! which was also another Internet first—it was the first gluten-free food site to offer a shopping cart-style interface, and the ability for people to order gluten-free products manufactured by many different companies at a single Web site.
I am also co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.
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
½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
¼ cup butter, softened (optional--makes a very fattening biscuit!)
**********************************
Another ¼ cup butter, melted, mixed with ¼ - ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375F. In medium bowl, blend all ingredients except for last two. 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. As soon as they come out of the oven, brush with melted butter/garlic combination.
Makes 6-8 large biscuits.

I used bacon grease from the day before.. it was about, I dunno 1/3 cup? I didn't measure, Lowered the butter to 2 Tblsn, baked @ 375 for about 15 mins, let em sit in the oven till the tops were golden. And I tell you what, these are amazing!!!! |

01 Sep 2011 9:30:23 AM PDT I made these last week and they were delicious. Then we went Red Lobster and I tried a bite of theirs and I decided I like the gluten free biscuits better. I also modified and used garbanzo flour, as I am trying to limit corn intake.

28 Jan 2012 9:54:10 AM PDT I haven't tried this recipe yet (I am going to Red Lobster today though, and plan on making them to take with me, though!), but I thought I'd share the "secret" to making them taste more like the real thing. after they come out of the oven, ever so lightly sprinkle the tops with LEMON JUICE! Before my family went GF, we were kind of red lobster aficionados, and I made my glutenous version at home, and the lemon juice adds that last step that most copy-cat recipes leave out. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

18 Feb 2012 2:04:20 PM PDT Oh my goodness! Praise God for this recipe. I was so upset tonight because we were going to Red Lobster and I knew I couldn't have their biscuits. I made these in under 20 minutes and they are FANTASTIC. I am bringing them with me to Red lobster so I won't feel so left out. THANK YOU!!!!!!

29 Apr 2013 8:54:08 AM PDT According to the manager at the Red Lobster we went to, their biscuits ARE gluten-free, but they wouldn't tell me what they use instead of flour. They said they use a biscuit mix, cheese and butter to make theirs and if it says it's gluten-free, then it is gluten-free. I tempted fate and tried them and have not had a reaction yet, but that was just last night.

29 Apr 2013 9:07:53 AM PDT FYI- I just replied about Red Lobster's menu saying the cheddar biscuits were gluten-free. The menu they gave me said it was (I checked multiple times and had my husband check too) but the gluten-free menu online says they are not gluten-free. Maybe they are trying a different recipe at that particular location.

27 Sep 2012 11:52:09 AM PDT I made these a couple of weeks ago and they didn't even last 2 hours in our house! I am gluten-free but my husband and kids are not and they even LOVED them!! I did not roll them out, I dropped spoon fulls onto the cookie tray and they turned out perfect. The next time I make them I will be making a double batch!

29 May 2013 12:42:22 PM PDT Thank you all for your comments I love the biscuits from red lobster but can't eat them whenever we go there. Now I will bake me some and bring with me when we go again.
