Extra Flaky Gluten Free Buttermilk Biscuits

360 g (3 cups) plain gluten free flour blend (I used Doves Farm Freee plain gluten free flour, which doesn't contain xanthan gum. You can also mix your own blend from 50% white rice flour, 30% potato starch and 20% maize flour by weight. **Note that maize flour in the UK is equivalent to corn flour in the US.**)

1 ½ tsp xanthan gum (Reduce to ¾ tsp if your gluten free flour already contains xanthan gum.)

1 tbsp granulated or caster/superfine sugar

4 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

170 g (1 ½ sticks) frozen unsalted butter, grated

260 g (1 cup + 1 ½ tbsp) cold buttermilk

2 to 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, for glazing
