I even double-checked with my husband (who doesn't cook at all!) and he thinks they brown nicely. However, they may not get as brown as wheat biscuits, so if that's what you're going for they probably do look a bit anemic. @Debra: I guess it might not be 350 since I don’t have an oven thermometer, but my biscuits do get brown.

I am considered a good cook (for 40 years!) and since my daughter has been on a gluten-free diet, I have dried many recipes from GF cookbooks - they have ALL been flops. I was feeling really discouraged and found your website this morning. These biscuits came out good - but they never really browned (Look sort of anemic). Do you really bake them at 350? I have an oven thermometer, so I know my oven was 350, but I baked them 20 minutes and they are still pale. Any suggestions? Thanks again for giving me some hope! Hi Mary Frances:

We're currently using rice "milk" since our brand of almond milk has some kind of soy in it... D'oh. Thanks again for the help, I can't wait to try it. :D Thanks a lot!

Usually you can make your own "buttermilk" from your milk substitute by putting 1 Tbsp. of lemon juice or vinegar into a 1 cup measure and then filling the cup the remainder of the way with your "milk". The result may not be quite as thick, but I've never had any problems with the recipes turning out. And, by the way, if you're looking for other non-dairy subs like sour cream try googling "vegan sour cream" and you should get a lot of good non-dairy recipes.

I have something of a problem though. Or... a few problems. Heh... Along with having to avoid gluten, I also have to give up egg, dairy, and soy. Naturally, that means no buttermilk for me. :( I was just getting into baking when I got diagnosed, so I'm not entirely too experienced which is why I'm asking you the following question. :D Is there anything I can substitute for the buttermilk in the recipes that call for it? Everywhere I look there are so many good looking recipes that I'd love to try, but most of them call for buttermilk, so you can see my problem. xD I await an answer of any kind! Thanks for your time.

Even more than the light and fluffy ones. I may have added more shortning than required... I was measuring it using a 1/2 tablespoon measure. Also, the light and fluffy ones were my very first gluten free baking experience, so I may like them better if I try them again, hehe. I don't have any baking sheets big enough to hold 12 biscuits (because in my first apartment, we had a -tiny- oven), so I do 6 at a time... and the first 6 are always gone by the time the second 6 are out :) We love these.
