‘Cause You’re Special! Hearty Biscuit Mix – Gluten, wheat, casein free

Posted on | May 7, 2007 | 2 Comments

I purchased this ‘Cause You’re Special mix from my local natural food store for $7.99 ( ouch!) for an 18 ounce bag. I was hoping it was good because it was pretty pricey. I found that this mix makes approximately 4 batches of 6 standard sized biscuits. The perfect size for a single meal for two to three gluten free people.

This mix makes both drop biscuits or regular ( rolled out and cut with a biscuit shaped cutter), both of which are very good. Once I mixed the dough after adding an egg, milk, and shortening, I found it to be very sticky and added extra mix to outside of the dough and the rolling pin when making the traditional version. The final product is light and fluffy and looks appealing with the gently browned exterior. The flavor is mild with just a hint of it’s rice flour base, and simply yummy. It matches perfectly with warm butter or a natural fruit spread. This biscuits are not grainy or heavy and would compliment any meal.

The biscuits kept well for another day or so in the fridge, but quickly dried out after that. I suggest eating them quick for best results. And since they are so tasty, that shouldn’t be a problem!

I’ll definitely buy this again.

Pros: light and fluffy texture, gentle flavor, appealing appearance

Cons: price, sticky batter

Hearty Biscuit Mix is a great cooking tool for those seeking gluten free biscuits that taste like regular flour based biscuits. We use it for biscuits, dressings etc. Price isn’t really fair but then nothing gluten free is, yet.
