You have to try this gluten free scones recipe that I found on Friends of Adam . They are the best gluten free bread I have tasted so far. They have a perfect, crisp golden brown crust with a soft, moist crumb on the inside. Simply delicious!
The scones are so simple to prepare. Just put all of the dry ingredients in a bowl before you go to bed. In the morning add the sour milk and butter. Mix, bake and voila….delicious, warm gluten free scones that the whole family will love.
Sorhum flour is an ancient whole grain (the fifth most important cereal crop in the world) that provides many other nutritional benefits. It is rich on minerals, protein, fiber, antioxidants and it is naturally gluten free. A great healthy substitution for more traditional flours.
I have tried the recipe several times with different kinds of gluten free flour and sorghum flour is definitely the winner. It makes the bread rise more, making it light and fluffy compared to the other flours. Unfortunately sorghum flour can be a little hard to find, at least here in Sweden, but you can google it and buy it online.
