Rustic, gluten-free drop biscuits top fresh pears for an old-fashioned fall or winter treat suitable for celiacs. I use comice pears that are naturally very sweet and juicy even when firm to ensure natural sweetness that will maintain their shape after cooking.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons cold butter, divided
1 ½ pounds Comice pears - peeled, cored, and cubed
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup white rice flour
¼ cup brown rice flour
¼ cup buckwheat flour
2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
⅛ cup packed brown sugar
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup cold milk, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cube 1 tablespoon of butter and place in an 8-inch round baking dish.
  • Place pears in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle with lemon juice and toss to coat. Sprinkle cornstarch over pears and toss to coat. Set aside.
  • Whisk white rice flour, brown rice flour, buckwheat flour, flaxseed meal, brown sugar, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Cut in remaining butter until the mixture resembles coarse pebbles. Add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough begins to pull together and form a ball.
  • Pour the pears into the prepared baking dish, covering the cubed butter. Drop walnut-sized balls of dough on top, pushing down to flatten and form a crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top has browned and pears are bubbling, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use ripe pears: The riper the pears, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be. If you don't have ripe pears, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag with a banana or apple for a few days.
  • Use fresh lemon juice: Fresh lemon juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the bread. Don't use bottled lemon juice, as it won't have the same flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread to hold its shape.

Conclusion:

Gluten-free pear bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that can be enjoyed by people with and without gluten sensitivities. It's a great way to use up ripe pears and is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its sweet, fruity flavor and soft, tender texture, gluten-free pear bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
