Basic Scones

I've never made gluten free scones but these came out so well. Serve with vegan cream and strawberry jam. The next few times I made them they didn't turn out well, very hard and didn't rise (pictured) :(

Basic Scones

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups GF self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
3 tbls vegan butter
1 tbls caster sugar
150ml rice/soy milk
1 Tbls GF plain flour (for dusting)


Method

Preheat oven to 220°C. Prepare a baking tray with greased baking paper.
In a bowl sift self-raising flour, baking powder & salt.
Rub in butter to resemble breadcrumbs.
Stir in sugar and milk and knead dough on a floury surface.
Roll out dough to 2cm thick and cut out scones with your prefered cutter.
Place on baking tray and dust with flour. If you wish you can lightly brush milk on the top of the scones first.
Bake for 15 mins or until golden.
