Easy herby gluten free biscuits made with soft goat cheese and herbs. This drop biscuit recipe is quick to make and pairs great with any meal. The biscuits are fluffy, herby with hints of tasty goat cheese and store and reheat beautifully.
We love biscuits and I love to make them! So when I decided to create this gluten free biscuit recipe I was determined to make it easy but also packed with flavor. Now, biscuits are typically pretty easy to make but involve a lot of extra steps so these drop biscuits are not just super simple, they are also gluten free!
These biscuits are not your typical super flaky biscuits but they are golden on the outside and cheesy, herby, and fluffy on the inside. If you like cheddar bay biscuits then check out these equally easy copycat Red Lobster Biscuits that are also gluten free.

I’m trying your recipe, mine look like cookies after baking. lol What’s missing is how much goat cheese I should put into the dough and how to fold it in I think. I just sort of did it. It smells and tastes delicious. I only wish I could get the looks too. Thanks for sharing such an amazing recipe.
I added a little less chili and glad that I did and did everything else exactly as described.
Hi Yong Li, Thank you so much for your comment. It looks like I forgot the goat cheese in the ingredients. It is 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese. I will add it back into the recipe. Thank you so much for letting me know.
I made these to go along with a vegetable bean soup tonight. They were so easy to make and SO Delicious! My husband loved them! I will be making these a lot.
Very strange…I made these before and they were excellent. This time, the batter was like soup-like thin. I checked the recipe carefully and found that I followed it exactly. I added more flour to reach consistency and they turned out hard and inedible. I can’t understand what went wrong.
Hi Maria, I am sorry to hear that the recipe did not turn out right for you. I have made these biscuits over and over again with no issues. It could be the type of flour you used. I like to use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten free Flour.
Can you include the flour type/brand you use in the recipe? Some GF AP flour is a rice mixture while the one you mention above is chickpea flour, fava bean flour, and other ingredients (which is very different than the Bob’s 1:1 GF flour).
I am going to try this recipe this weekend. I’ll keep you posted.
Hi Rebecca, this recipe will work with any gluten free all purpose flour. Please let me know how they turn out for you!
