Gluten Free Scones

Ingredients

  • 300 g Gluten free self-raising flour
  • 75 g Butter
  • 35 g Caster sugar
  • 160 ml milk (1 egg, then the rest made up with milk)
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • ½ tsp Xanthan gum
  • 25 g Sultanas (optional)
  • 1 Egg (for brushing)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 or 200 degrees celsius.
  • In a large bowl, add the flour, xanthan gum and baking powder and mix well. Add the butter and rub between your fingers to form breadcrumbs.
  • Add the caster sugar and mix well.
  • To form a dough, add the egg and milk and stir. (Add the sultanas at this point if you are using them).
  • On a floured surface, roll (or pat) out the dough until it's approximately 3 cm thick.
  • Use a 6 cm cutter and place the scones onto a baking tray (line with baking parchment if not non-stick)
  • Brush with beaten egg and bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
  • Serve with clotted cream and jam (in either order - your preference!) and enjoy!
