Instructions

Add all dry ingredients to a bowl. Mix well.
Combine milk mixture (or buttermilk) and oil.
Add wets to dries and stir until just mixed and then beat another 10 strokes.
Drop large golf-ball sized balls of dough onto a baking stone or cookie sheet, at least 2" apart.
Bake in a 425 degree preheated oven for 12 - 15 minutes until lightly-browned.

Notes

Gluten-free Baking Help: For help with baking gluten-free, see my Gluten-Free Baking Tips.
Baking Powder Alternative: If you would like to make your own baking powder, see Homemade Baking Powder. To avoid the starch, use 1 2/3 teaspoons baking soda and a splash more of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar instead of baking powder.
Buttermilk Alternative: To make your own buttermilk, put 1/8 cup lemon juice or apple cider vinegar (I use this organic option) in a measuring cup and add enough milk to make 2 cups. You can use any milk or milk alternative like Easiest Coconut Milk or Easiest Almond Milk)
