Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Optional: Dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, etc.) or chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
If using optional dried fruit or chocolate chips, fold them into the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round disc about 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick.
Use a sharp knife to cut the disc into 8 equal wedges. Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on the edges and cooked through.
Allow the scones to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm with butter, jam, or your favorite toppings!
