List of Ingredients




3 C. gluten-free flour mix (see below)
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 tsp salt
8 slices of bacon (cooked and chopped or crumbled)
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
4 green onions, sliced thin
6 oz cold butter cut into small cubes
1 C. milk (or gluten-free soy milk) mixed with 4 T. vinegar–I used apple cider vinegar
1 large egg
2 tablespoons water

Jeanne’s Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Mix (mix together and store in fridge):
1 1/4 C. brown rice flour
1 1/4 C. white rice flour
1 C. tapioca flour
1 C. sweet rice flour (also known at Mochiko)
2 scant tsp. xanthan gum

Recipe



Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line baking sheet with a Silpat sheet. In a large bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper. Mix until blended well. Add butter and keep mixing with your hands until it is crumbly and your butter is in small pea size pieces. You can also use a pastry cutter or two knives. Add the cheese and mix until well blended.

Slowly pour in the milk mixture–do this carefully, because you might not need it all. I used about 7/8s of the milk. The dough should be just barely wet. Use your hands to carefully mix in the last bits of flour. The dough should be extremely light and fluffy. Handle carefully.

Turn out only a floured board. I use tapioca flour to lightly flour a large cutting board and lightly press out the ball of dough until it is about 1/2 in thickness (you can also follow the original recipe and use a rolling pin and cut the scones according to Jeanne’s instructions). Cut in half and depending on how many scones you want to make cut each half in third or quarters. Place the scones on the baking sheet lined with the Silpat sheet.

In a small bowl beat egg and water together. Lightly brush the tops of the scones and bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool on a rack and enjoy warm!
