Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups gluten free flour blend * see note
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 8 tablespoons butter cold
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • ¼ cup chopped cooked bacon
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • ½ cup powdered sugar (glaze)
  • 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350º F.
  • In a large bowl, add flour, sugar, and salt. Whisk to blend.
  • Add chunks of cold butter. Use a pastry blender to chop up all of the butter. Your dough will be grainy. (You can also use a food processor to do this.)
  • In a small bowl, add eggs and milk. Add to scone dough with the chopped cooked bacon and pecans.
  • Mix well.
  • Grease a scone pan and add batter to each section and bake for 22-25 minutes.
  • Remove scones from the oven. Take out of the scone pan and allow to cool on a cooling rack.
  • In a bowl, add powdered sugar and maple syrup. When the scones are cool, dip one side into the glaze and put back on the rack until the glaze hardens.

Notes

  1. I have tested this recipe with King Arthur Measure for Measure GF and Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 GF blend. That doesn't mean others will not work, I just have not tested other flours.
  2. If your gluten free flour blend doesn’t contain xanthan gum or guar gum, please add 1 teaspoon.
  3. These scones will keep up to 4 days in an air-tight container in the refrigerator, or up to 4 months in the freezer.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
