The perfect gluten free Scone recipe!!

Baking gluten free scones for the first time yesterday I took a bit of a chance picking a recipe, but it turned out to the be the tastiest and easiest recipe ever!! So here it is.....

With thanks to: http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/member-recipes/Gluten-Free%20Scones/3483

Ingredients:

175g gluten free self raising flour (I used Doves Farm)

50g ground almonds

large pinch salt

50g butter or hard marg (I used butter)

125ml milk

Method:

Preheat the oven to 200C.

Sift the flour and the salt into a bowl, then stir in the ground almonds.

Add the butter or marg and rub together until it looks like fine breadcrumbs.

Slowly, mixing with the back of a knife, add the milk until a soft dough is formed.

Bring together  and gently knead in the bowl.

Turn out onto a lightly floured board, roll out to about 1.5inches thick, cut into circles with a cutter (I made mini ones) and place on a lightly greased baking tray.

Repeat until the dough is used. Bake for 10-15mins until golden brown and serve immediately.

Alternatively, cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours or freeze for up to a month.

Serve with jam and clotted cream for a delicious treat...!
