SPELT BISCUITS

I have made these biscuits for health nuts and non healthy eaters alike, but there are never leftovers. These are heavier on account of the spelt flour, but the nutty whole grain flavor is divine. Best when served fresh out of the oven, eaten with butter and honey or jam.

Spelt Baking Powder Drop Biscuits image

I so missed bread when I was eating gluten free that I experimented until I came up with this recipe for those times when I just had to have bread. The dry ingredients can be premixed and stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container. I live alone and I didn't want a lot of leftovers so I cut the recipe down until I could...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 c spelt flour, white
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 1/2 Tbsp baking powder

Steps:

  • 1. Mix these three dry ingredients and store in the refrigerator until you feel a need for biscuits.
  • 2. To a generous 1/2 cup of the flour mixture, add a scant TBS of vegetable oil (I use canola) and a scant 1/4 cup of tepid water. A large mug makes a perfect mixing bowl.
  • 3. Beat 10 strokes. Drop in 2 or 3 mounds on a baking sheet. (I use my toaster oven and put foil on the baking sheet)
  • 4. Bake 12 minutes until firm to the touch and lightly brown on the bottom.

STRAWBERRY SPELT BISCUITS RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Strawberry Spelt Biscuits Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by Kathy_Hester

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 teaspoon apple cider
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup soymilk (or other nondairy milk)
1 1/2 cups Bob's Red Mill whole-wheat pastry flour
1 cup Bob's Red Mill spelt flour
1/4 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 cup minced strawberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Oil 2 cookie sheets or line with parchment paper. Stir the apple cider vinegar and vanilla into the soy milk and set aside. This will make it curdle and thicken it. Please note that if you use another milk it may not curdle. Add the flours, sugar, baking powder and salt to a mixing bowl and mix well. Then add in the solid coconut oil (chill it before hand if it's a short summer day.) Cut in the coconut oil with a pastry cutter or 2 large forks. You can also use your food processor. No matter what method you use you want the mixture to look similar to a course corn meal. Pour the soymilk mixture in the dry mixture with the strawberries and begin mixing with a wooden spoon. Spread some extra flour onto a large cutting board, then scrape the dough out and pat the dough about ½ inch thick. Use a cookie cutter or a jam-sized mason jar to cut out the biscuits. Place on the prepared cookie sheet. Gather up the leftover dough and pat in out again and cut out biscuits. Continue this process until all the dough is used. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes until the bottoms of the biscuits are a medium-brown.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are cold before you start baking.
  • Work the dough gently to avoid overworking it.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven.
  • Keep an eye on the biscuits while they are baking to avoid overcooking.

Conclusion:

Spelt biscuits are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a batch of homemade spelt biscuits that are sure to impress your family and friends.
