Gluten Free Feta & Chive Biscuits

These savory scones are perfect with drinks before dinner or as part of a cheese and cracker plate. Feta cheese is used in place of the butter usually found in most biscuit recipes and the topping of a little cayenne pepper gives a nice spicy taste in every bite.





Recipe:

1 cup gluten free all-purpose baking mix
2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper or paprika if you don't like heat

Combine all-purpose baking mix and salt in a medium bowl.  Mix the feta cheese into the mix with your fingers until finely mixes. the  Stir in the chives, then add the milk and mix to a soft dough. Turn onto a surface dusted with a little of the all-purpose mix and knead until smooth. Roll out to 3/4 " thickness and cut out 2" biscuits. You can re roll the dough to use it all up. 

Place the biscuits onto a lightly greased baking sheet and brush with some milk. Sprinkle the cayenne pepper or paprika on top. 
Bake @ 400 degrees 15 minutes.
Makes 8 biscuits.
