Cheddar-Garlic Biscuits

• Biscuits:
• 3.15 ounces tapioca flour (about 3/4 cup)
• 2.6 ounces white rice flour (about 1/2 cup)
• 2.6 ounces potato starch (about 1/2 cup)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
• 2 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 3 ounces reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (about 3/4 cup)
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
• Garlic Butter:
• 1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1. Preheat oven to 425u0b0.
2. To prepare biscuits, weigh or lightly spoon flours and potato starch into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, potato starch, baking powder, and next 6 ingredients (through salt) in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk; cut in shortening and butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in cheese and parsley. Add buttermilk; stir just until moist.
3. Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 425u0b0 for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
4. While biscuits bake, combine melted butter and garlic powder in a small bowl; stir with a whisk.
5. Remove biscuits from baking sheet to a wire rack; brush with garlic butter. Cool slightly.
