Biscuits turned red after baking
So I made some buttermilk biscuits and they turned out red inside after baking. I have rough idea what might have happened. The recipe calls for baking soda and baking powder along with buttermilk. Is it mallaird reaction? They pink to red hue once they came out of the oven. Does anyone have any idea what went wrong? I tried a small bite, taste pretty normal. Lol.

From looking around, I see comments it's mostly harmless, but a few warnings about possible carcinogenic properties.
I would ask manufacturers of b powder and b soda, nutritionist and/or county extension service about safety of this color reaction.
