Red Lobster Style Cheddar Bay Biscuits (Gluten-Free)
This recipe comes to us from Fiddle-Faddle in the Gluten-Free Forum. This is an adaptation of Robyn Ryberg's biscuits, found here on celiac.com.

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.

Let us know how they turn out. Those biscuits were my absolutely favorite thing about Red Lobster. I'm planning that you're going to say they are delicious - I've already copied the recipe to my file. Smile
