Gluten-Free Herb Scones

Ingredients:

2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1/4 cup fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, and dill), finely chopped
2/3 cup buttermilk (or a dairy-free alternative)

1 large egg
Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in the finely chopped fresh herbs.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky.

Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface or parchment paper. Gently knead it a few times, then pat it into a circle about 1-inch thick.

Use a round biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out scones from the dough. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each scone.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on top and cooked through.

These gluten-free Herb Scones are infused with the flavors of fresh herbs and are perfect for serving with soups, salads, or as a snack. Enjoy!
