  1. Combine gluten free flour, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, sugar, and salt.
  2. Place flour mixture and the cold dairy free butter in a food processor and pulse until it is evenly distributed through the dry ingredients and about the size of small peas.

    1. f you click on the link for the original recipe–they use a GF all purpose flour plus 1 additional flour (rice flour). I would suggest that you go to that recipe for amounts.

  1. Do you think you can combine all the different flours & just use GF all purpose? This is the most frustrating for me. Where I live there isn’t the selection of all of these flours but I can get GF all purpose. How much do you suggested I should use?

  2. I tried this recipe using the flour mix I keep on hand and it was delicious! Loved it. I’ll be making this one again and again. (The mix is 3 parts sorghum, 3 parts potato starch, 2 parts tapioca.)

  3. We’re new to the DF life… fake cheese scares me (the screaming/sobbing protests of Daiya ‘cheddar cheese’ on our hamburgers the other day didn’t help. Is there a good option that it likely to be accepted – does the fake cheese work better when incorporated into something like a scone – or is it safer to skip the ‘cheese’ and make it without?

    1. Hi Nicole, sorry for my delayed response. I personally do not like the taste of Daiya, I’d rather go without! I think in this case though the taste is hidden in the scones so you don’t notice it as much. But you could do half of the batch with and half without and see what the majority prefers!

  4. Has anyone actually frozen and then reheated these? I always worry about the texture of gluten free baked goods once thawed.
