Creating The Fluffiest Gluten Free Biscuits is simple and enjoyable! Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
3. Add Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk and egg (if using) until combined.
5. Mix Together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
6. Shape the Dough: Gently turn the dough onto a floured surface. Press down to about 1-inch thickness and fold the dough over on itself one or two times for added flakiness.
7. Cut Biscuits: Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, close together for soft sides.
8. Brush Round: If desired, brush the tops with additional buttermilk for a shiny finish.
9. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly before serving.

Enjoy the fluffiness that comes from following these straightforward steps!
