Recipe Notes

  1. *To make your own buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to your regular dairy milk.
  2.  I use my Nightshade Free Flour Mix in this recipe. I have also tested it with Bob's Red Mill 1:1 Baking Mix with great results.
  3. If the flour mix you use contains xanthan gum, omit the amount I called for in this recipe.
  4. For dairy-free "buttermilk", use 1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk plus 1 tablespoon of white vinegar in place of the buttermilk.
  5. Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 2 days. Individual pieces can also be wrapped and frozen.
