Being gluten-free makes eating plant-based just a bit more difficult. I stay away from oil as well, so finding a good loaf of bread is impossible! So, this means I have to come up with my own recipes.
I was making my black bean burger patties for dinner, and I wanted to try to make a homemade hamburger bun (still trying to figure it out)… I developed this recipe and was super excited! They came out of the oven, and immediately I told my daughter “these smell like biscuits!” After I let them cool a bit, I tasted one and sure enough, biscuits.
I do not suggest trying to cut them in half like a biscuit. They will crumble a bit. Just flip them over to the flat side, lather with some jelly and enjoy!
You can eat them cold or hot, and they will not dry out. They stay so moist and biscuit like. I truly love this recipe, and I hope you do too!
Note: I buy my brown rice flour in the bulk section at Winco. I grind my own oats in a blender to make oat flour.
