How to Bake Our Take & Bake Gluten Free Biscuits
Flaky, buttery, Southern-style biscuits — and the best part? You bake them straight from the freezer. No thawing, no fuss, just 20 minutes in a hot oven for biscuits that taste like they came out of grandma’s kitchen.
Before you bake — read this first:
Your oven is never fully pre-heated when it beeps. Let it continue pre-heating for an additional 20 minutes after it signals it’s ready. We know it’s hard to wait — but this one step makes all the difference in how your order turns out.
About Our Biscuits
Southern-Style Biscuits, Made Gluten Free
Made fresh in our dedicated gluten-free kitchen and flash-frozen for you to finish at home. The secret to perfect biscuits is going straight from freezer to a hot oven — no thawing required. Bake them when company stops by, when Sunday brunch is calling, or any morning that needs a little extra comfort.
Heads up — These Instructions Are for Take & Bake Items Only
These baking instructions apply to our raw, frozen take-and-bake biscuits — items you take home to bake yourself. If you purchased already-baked biscuits from our shop (we often have these in stock!), you do not need to bake them — just warm and enjoy. Not sure which you have? Give us a call at (270) 551-4440.
How to Bake Our Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pro Tip Your oven is never fully pre-heated when it beeps! Let it pre-heat another 20 minutes after it says it's ready. To get the best rise on your biscuits, you want frozen biscuits going into a super hot oven.
- Take your biscuits directly from the freezer and place them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper (a nonstick baking mat works great, too). Do NOT defrost before baking!
- Bake for 20–23 minutes, until the outside of your biscuits are nicely browned.
Dairy Free Note If you're baking our DAIRY FREE biscuits, add 2 minutes to your bake time.
- Enjoy! Best served warm with butter, jam, or sausage gravy.
Pro Tips for Perfect Biscuits
NEVER defrost. Biscuits go straight from the freezer to a hot oven. Thawing first will give you flat, dense biscuits instead of tall, flaky ones.
A truly hot oven is non-negotiable. Wait the full pre-heat time. The hot oven is what creates steam inside the biscuits, lifting them into those tall, layered beauties.
Don’t crowd the pan. Leave at least an inch between biscuits so heat circulates evenly and they brown on all sides.
Brush with melted butter right out of the oven for extra richness and a shiny golden top. (Optional — but worth it.)
Storage & Reheating
How to Store & Reheat
Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Don’t refrigerate — the fridge dries them out and makes them crumbly. If you need to keep them longer than 2 days, freeze instead: let them cool completely, wrap tightly, and they’ll keep for up to a month. To reheat, pop in a 350°F oven for about 8–10 minutes, or microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel.
