  1. Your scone recipe looks very tasty. Looking forward to trying it out. One thought – have you considered using weights to measure ingredients like flour and starches? So much easier and more accurate, as well. Consistent results, and easier for multiplying in the spreadsheet, using grams instead of tablespoons. Would love to see weights!
    Thanks.

    1. You are right, weights are great to work with for baking especially when baking large quantities, but as most regular home cooks aren’t using weights we are using cups/tablespoons/etc. instead to make them more accessible for everyone. Feel free to convert the recipe to weights. When measuring flours, I always stir the flour, then spoon it into the cup then level with a straight edge – that should help with figuring the weights when initially converting the recipe. 🙂

  2. Looking forward to making this, but 1 1/2 WHAT of xanthan gum? Tsp, or TBL?
    I have started using weights because it makes substituting flours easier… 1 C of almond meal doesn’t weigh the same as 1 C of sorghum. As many GF folks have multiple food sensitivities, substitutions are pretty standard.Can’t wait to make these… need a new breakfast. =0)

    1. It is 1 1/2 teaspoon of xanthan gum. The recipe is corrected now. 🙂 Thanks!You are correct, substitutions are a standard thing in gluten free baking, however as volume is what most home bakers use that is how the recipes are written. I do have a list of gluten free flour volume to weight conversations at http://angelaskitchen.com/2011… if you don’t want to weigh your own. When subbing gluten free flours, be sure to sub one that has similar properties to the one you are replacing for the greatest chance of a successful conversion. Hope that helps!
