Ingredients


2/3 cup Cassava flour
1 3/4 tsp Baking powder
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
3 1/2 tbsp All Purpose Palm Shortening
1/2 cup Coconut milk, canned (full fat)
1 1/4 tsp Lemon juice (or apple cider vinegar)

Instructions


  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit
  2. Add lemon juice to 1 cup measuring cup and then fill up the rest of the way with coconut milk to the 1 cup line. Stir and set aside while you prep dry ingredients.
  3. Add Cassava flour, baking powder and salt to a medium bowl, whisk to combine.
  4. Add shortening to the flour mixture and cut in with a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Give the coconut milk a stir and then pour into dry ingredients. Stir in coconut milk until dough comes together. Using your hands, gently roll dough ball around the bowl to shape and gather all the dough/flour on the side of the bowl. 
  6. Lightly dust a piece of parchment paper and flatten dough slightly with the palm of your hands. Dust with a little bit more flour and cover with another piece of parchment paper.
  7. Divide dough into equal servings. Put in a muffin tin that has been sprayed with oil. 
  8. Place in oven - depending on the size biscuit bake times will vary just a bit. (14-18 minutes)
