Easy to make gluten-free drop biscuits that are perfect with a buttery spread and jam or drizzled with honey. These delicious biscuits will become a go-to for breakfast or dinner. They go perfectly with my gluten-free sausage gravy!

It’s so nice to have an easy recipe like this one to be able to add biscuits to any meal. And I love that it just takes a few ingredients to make these.

How to Make Gluten-Free Drop Biscuits:

A picture showing all the ingredients that you need to make easy gluten-free dairy-free biscuits.

This easy gluten-free biscuit recipe starts with 2 cups of gluten-free flour.

Mixing all the ingredients in a large grey ceramic bowl for gluten-free biscuits.

Then whisk in 3 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Next, stir in 1/3 cup of gluten-free mayonnaise and 1 cup almond milk.

The biscuit dough all mixed together and ready to bake.

Stir it until it is all combined. It will be very sticky.

Scoop up the dough with a large spoon and use a spatula to help scrape it off the spoon and onto a parchment-lined baking pan. Leave an inch or two between the biscuits. This recipe makes around 11 biscuits.

Freshly baked gluten-free drop biscuits.

Bake the biscuits for 25 minutes at 400°. Remove the biscuits from the oven to cool or can be served immediately.

Tools & Ingredients for This Recipe

  • Gluten-Free Flour: My favorite gluten-free & dairy-free flour blends to use are Pamela’s Artisan Blend and Better Batter. I’ve been using them both with great results. They are both a 1-1 substitute. If you use another gluten-free flour blend be sure that it contains xanthan gum. If not add 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum per cup of flour.
  • Baking Pan – This is the pan that I use for most of my baking. I have the set of two and they are by far my favorite brand of baking pans.
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mats – With gluten-free baking these will be your best friends. Most gluten-free doughs are much stickier than regular wheat-based doughs and these make sure they don’t stick to your pan and makes clean-up a breeze.

    Finally, I can have a gluten free dairy free drip biscuit! I have missed these so much. Thank you for this recipe. BTW I didn’t have almond milk so I used coconut milk and King Arthur’s 1 to 1 flour. So delicious.

    Can I use something else besides mayonnaise. Something healthy or leave it out?

      You can choose whatever type of mayonnaise that you like. Even making it from scratch if you want to control the ingredients. The beauty of this recipe is the ease of just a few ingredients and using something else or leaving it out would completely change the results.

    These were SO good and SO easy to make! I made these last minute and already had all the ingredients I needed at home. I also used vegan Mayo for an egg-free option and they turned out great! I also added a garlic/olive oil drizzle over top. Will definitely be making them many more times!

      So glad you liked them and what a delicious idea of drizzling garlic oil over the top. I’ll definitely give that a try too.

    Fantastic and easy recipe. Our gluten free / dairy free young kid helped make them and loved them! Found they only needed 16 minutes in the oven.

    I often have a desire for biscuits, but dread the work. Just tried this recipe, and it has changed my life. So quick. So easy. Simple ingredients that I always have on hand. No trying to make buttermilk or making a run to the grocery store. Love it! Thank you so much!
