Classic Gluten Free Scones

The most quintessentially British of all baked goods. No afternoon tea is complete without a pair of crumbly scones slathered in clotted cream and succulent strawberry jam.

The most quintessentially British of all baked goods. No afternoon tea is complete without a pair of crumbly scones slathered in clotted cream and succulent strawberry jam.

Scones are firmly rooted in the British cream tea tradition. Yet despite – or perhaps because of – that, they are also subject to much controversy, sparking fierce debate among passionate partisans on eating method (do you put the clotted cream or the jam on first?) and pronunciation (do you say “scoan” or “scon”?) Lucky for you, there’s nothing controversial about this gluten free scones recipe: it’s quick, easy and delicious! Absolutely ideal for a special Mother’s Day treat. Pack the pastry with sultanas or currants when you’re feeling extra fruity.
