Gluten Free Jam Drops
These gluten-free jam drops are for all those gluten-intolerant individuals out there, who since being diagnosed have missed out on their Grandma’s Jam Drops! This may be a little dramatic but if you have a gluten intolerant friend or family member that has a sweet tooth, you will know what I am talking about.
These biscuits may not be the most nutritionally nourishing. I can, however, guarantee they will be nourishing to the soul. The smell of these Jam Drops cooking is nostalgic. These old-fashioned biscuits will bring joy to your family and friends, with the added benefit of being gluten-free and egg-free. If you need to make them dairy-free as well, substitute the butter for a dairy-free spread!
