Enjoy slathered in butter or with hot vegetarian gravy, mmm…

Notes
Rebecca Reilly’s GF Flour mix:
Made in bulk, proportions are
2 cups brown rice flour, 2/3 cup potato starch, 1/3 cup tapioca starch. Now please buy her wonderful cookbook.)

BEST the first day they are made. After that, heat briefly in microwave to warm before serving.

These are not a light and fluffy biscuit… someday.
