Calories 98kcal
- 1 cup light buckwheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 4 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons applesauce
- 1 ½ teaspoons brown rice syrup optional; omit if you don't like sweet biscuits
- ½ cup buttermilk
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt).
Stir in the oil, applesauce, and syrup (if using) until the mixture looks 'pebbly' in appearance.
Stir in the buttermilk. To make your own, mix one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice with just enough milk to equal 1/2 cup.
The batter will be fairly wet and sticky, but it will thicken up a bit as it sits.
Using an ice cream scoop or spoon, dollop the dough onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet into 8-10 equal biscuits.
Bake the biscuits for 8-10 minutes, until puffed and springy to the touch (mine are done in closer to 8 minutes, but my oven runs hot).
