 Great for a Gluten Free Biscuit mix!Jul 08, 2006
By A. bauman
"Mother, Wife, Artist"
They were thick, like Bisquick biscuits. They tasted great. Would be WONDERFUL in Chicken & Dumplings...
The only thing I did wrong when making them, was using Bob's Red Mill sAll purpose gluten free flour to roll the biscuit dough in. It made the outside of our biscuits taste like raw beans... yuck! I used White Rice flour, and they tasted great ;)
For a "buttery" flavor, put butter (or, if you are GFCF a non-casien containing margarine spread) on the top for a taste similar to KFC. Taste great with jelly in the middle, too. :) I froze the unbaked "left-over" biscuits, and they turned out well 2 months later. :)

GF Personal Preference for EXCELLENT bread sourceNov 08, 2008
By C Bismuth
"CatB; CroquetCreative/HypFoods"
This mix has been a true life-changer for me. I learned to bake from Southerners, so the recipe on the package doesn't work for my taste. As noted by some other reviewers, I found the biscuits MUCH too hard and dry for me. However, I also lived outside of Boston for several years and if you like the dry style of New England Scones, you'll probably like this, too.
I make the biscuits in my food processor with some small modifications to the recipe. Where Bob's recipe calls for 3/4 Cup of milk, I use 3/4 C of lowfat organic milk and 3/4 C of organic buttermilk for a total of 1.5 Cups of milk. I also use half butter and half organic non-hydrogenated shortening. The dough comes out of the machine very loose and sloppy, but you knead in a little rice flour to tighten it up, roll and portion with a biscuit cutter. YUM! Light, fluffy GLUTEN FREE biscuits. We LOVE them!
I get about 18 biscuits from a batch with this technique. I line an airtight container with parchment or wax paper and store them in the fridge, then heat in the microwave for 30 seconds when I'm ready for bread. One batch lasts me for a week when I'm the only person eating them. If we have house guests, they go faster.

Works well in nearly any recipeJan 18, 2007
By K. Nettles
I've used this product for recipes such as chicken pot pie and shepherds pie. To get height, I whip the batter in my stand mixer to ensure lots of air bubbles are trapped to support the mix as it cooks. They've turned out great and you can't tell it's gluten-free. I've had less luck making biscuits out of it -- came out hard -- but that seems to be a hazard in any gluten-free flour mix.

 Love This ProductJan 17, 2010
By J. Riecke
I love this product! I use it to make pumpkin and banana breads; it works much better than the Bob's Red Mill gluten free flour mis. The breads are always very mosit, and can be frozen well.

Made of Beans, tastes like BeansJan 09, 2012
By topazgirl
The second ingredient is Garbanzo beans and when they were done they tasted of beans. Almost a corn-bread like taste...but mostly of beans. I couldn't even enjoy them with butter.
As some have said, they would likely be great as dumplings, or anything else that hides the flavor.
But to bite into them with butter, you will only taste beans.
Also, I used the lower amount of recommended water and they did not rise and came out as flat cookies. I used the highest amount of water suggested for the second batch and they really didn't rise any better. I did not over mix or over knead. (yet some reviewers say you need to add much more water and really mix a lot to instill air into the mix)...
I will say, that these could be used as dumplings or something like that. To not waste these, I am going to freeze them and when I can make a main dish that is moist enough, I will spoon it over the top of these.
I will try again, but not with something using bean flour in the recipe. Now that I read other's reviews, they all seem to agree this mix doesn't make good biscuits but is apparently great for other things.
I included a picture of them above.
Also, being as the main ingredient is rice, these will not brown. But that is typical of anything made of rice. It stays white/light.....
