Learn how to customize gluten-free buttermilk biscuits with cheese, herbs, and other add-ins, choose drop vs rolled biscuits, and serve them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Quick answer

Start with the mix as your base, fold in one or two add-ins such as shredded cheese or chopped herbs, and choose drop biscuits for speed or rolled biscuits for layers. Serve them warm for breakfast with eggs, or alongside dinner as a quick side.

Why add-ins change more than flavor

Adding cheese, herbs, or other ingredients affects moisture and structure, so you may need to adjust the liquid or handling to keep the biscuits tender. Start with small amounts and note how the dough feels.

For drop biscuits, a wetter dough is fine; for rolled biscuits, keep the dough manageable so it can be patted out without sticking.

Drop vs rolled: choose based on time and texture

Drop biscuits are scooped and baked without rolling, saving time and cleanup. Rolled biscuits are patted out and cut, which can create more distinct layers if you handle the dough gently.

Neither method is better; pick based on whether you want speed or a more traditional look.

Step-by-step: customize and serve your biscuits

Prepare the mix according to package directions: Combine the biscuit mix with the required added ingredients (typically water or milk and butter or oil) as listed on the package. Mix just until a dough forms. Overmixing can make biscuits tough; stop as soon as no dry streaks remain.
Choose your add-ins: For cheese and herb biscuits, fold in 1/2 to 3/4 cup shredded cheese and 1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs (or 1 to 2 teaspoons dried) per batch. Other options: cooked crumbled bacon, chopped chives, or a pinch of garlic powder. Add-ins add moisture, so if the dough seems dry, add liquid one teaspoon at a time.
Decide between drop and rolled biscuits: For drop biscuits, scoop mounds of dough onto a lined baking sheet. For rolled biscuits, pat the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick on a lightly floured surface (use gluten-free flour or the mix itself), then cut with a biscuit cutter. For rolled biscuits, handle the dough as little as possible to keep them tender.
Bake and check for doneness: Bake at the temperature and time given on the package, until golden brown on top and cooked through. Ovens vary, so start checking at the earliest time. If you added wet ingredients like cheese or vegetables, you may need a few extra minutes.
Serve for breakfast, lunch, or dinner: For breakfast, split warm biscuits and fill with scrambled eggs, cheese, or sausage. For dinner, serve alongside soups, stews, or as a base for biscuits and gravy. Leftovers can be split and toasted. Biscuits are best the day they are made; store extras in an airtight container and reheat gently.
