Servings: 9 -15 scones, depending on size
Ingredients
- 2 cups gfJules™ All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour
- 2 Tbs. flaxseed meal optional, or just use 2 Tbs. more gfJules Flour
- 1/4 cup granulated cane sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1-2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
- 4 Tbs. butter or vegan butter
- 2 large eggs or egg substitute like 2 Tbs. flaxseed meal steeped in 6 Tbs. warm water
- 3/4 cup pumpkin purée – canned or make your own
- 1/2 cup fresh cranberries optional
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans optional
- cinnamon-sugar to sprinkle on the tops before baking
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Whisk together all dry ingredients in a large bottom bowl. Cut butter or shortening into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or two knives. Stir in the eggs and pumpkin. Gently fold in berries and nuts.
- Spoon dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet “drop” style, and sprinkle with a pre-made cinnamon and sugar mixture. Or pat out to a round shape on a pastry mat or clean counter lightly floured with gfJules Flour. Cut across the circle to make triangle-shaped wedges and remove each to lay on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, just until the tops are lightly browned. Do not overcook.
- Makes approximately 9-15 scones, depending on size.
