Does anyone have tips on baking these in the High Desert? In 4 years, I can’t seem to bake a decent type of bread. Flat and crumbly but I’m not blaming the recipe, just the climate. Thanks!

Hi Lee,
I live in Helena, MT 4,300ft.
I’ve made these before & they turned out fine, but a little crumbly. Not falling apart tho.
I actually made these vegan & heated up the non dairy milk.
I’ve read elsewhere to always use warm ingredients for gluten free baking.
Hope this helps!
Hey I was just wondering if I could use my bag of organic whole oats to make this reciepe? What do you think?
That’s what I use. I just put the oats in the blender 😉
I have made these a few times and they are great! My son has a long list of food allergies so it’s a challenge to find alternatives that we all like. These are a great option.

I was looking for a super quick, gluten free bread, and these fit the bill perfectly. Everyone liked them! I even subbed about a fourth of the oat flour for buckwheat flour, and ghee in place of regular butter. I also added about half the coconut milk. Usually I try to soak grains before using, but this was a great compromise for a busy night with a dinner guest. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
Happy you enjoyed them Hannah, and I will have to try your version! 🙂
I’ve made these delicious biscuit several times and would like to know if the dough can be refrigerated overnight and baked the following morning? Also, do the baked biscuits freeze/reheat well?
Thank you for this easy and healthy recipe!
I’m not sure how the dough would hold up overnight, I have not tested that. I would assume it would be best to make right away. As for reheating and freezing, you can do both well with this recipe.
I just got done making these. Oh my goodness, they are wonderful!
Glad you are enjoying them April!
Just made recipe, taste great – they are a little small, so I think next time I will just double recipe. Just had one with a dab of honey-really good.
Are you able to sub buttermilk for coconut milk?
Yep, buttermilk will work out just fine.
These were really great! I made a couple, slight variations. I upped the butter by 1/2 T and added a t of sugar. Reading the comments I used a slightly heaping cup of oat flour. I was surprised at how much these biscuits tasted like Bisquick (which I have missed) despite having no buttermilk in them. They’re crumbly, which could be solved with gum or egg, but I decided I was fine with the crumbles, choosing flavor over the ease of picking up the biscuit itself. I also lowered the temp to 400 degrees. These biscuits weren’t in the least bit dry and tasted so much like the ones I used to eat. Actually, better, if I’m honest. You made a GF recipe better than the gluten variety. ?
Love your variations, thanks for sharing Lorraine.
Surprisingly delicious, with a true biscuit texture! I used store-bought coconut milk, and put it in the blender. Instead of butter, I used 4-1\2 teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil. Thanks for posting this delectable recipe!

Mine are cooling at this moment!
I am trying to reduce carbs, so gluten-free and organic are not what I’m after. I used 1 1/2 cups of oat flour, added 1 tsp of vital wheat gluten (hoping to ‘get a rise out of them’), and used shortening and buttermilk (instead of butter and whole milk). I dropped six large biscuits and baked longer than 15 minutes to get a nice ‘brown’ on them. Now the result …
So … since I’m not used to eating gluten free, they aren’t as delicious as everyone touts … but that’s relative. If I had to eat gluten-free all the time, I would probably think they were superb. Next time I would definitely add a little sugar, eliminate the vwg (since there was no ‘rise’ anyway) and use butter instead of butter-flavored Crisco.
I’m also going to experiment with spelt flour biscuits, but am happy to have found this recipe!
