Notes

Able to be frozen: yes however freeze the dough before baking
 
This batch of biscuits will only use half of this batch of lemon curd so you can either make a double batch of biscuits or halve the lemon curd recipe if you don’t want any leftovers. Although the lemon curd is also so yummy on pancakes too!! 
This recipe can also be made gluten free by swapping the recipe to 1 1/4 cup almond meal & 3/4 cup tapioca flour in the place of spelt
