Place the flour in a bowl and rub in the butter with your hands to get a breadcrumb consistency.
-
Stir in the sugar then add in beaten eggs with 50ml of the milk, mix well with a wooden spoon until to thick, then switch to hands to bring the dough together, it should form into a handle-able ball which is quite soft, if it is too wet to handle add a little more flour. Add more milk if the mix is too dry. Sometimes I need up to 150ml - gluten free flour can be quite thirsty and it varies depends on brand!
-
Bring the dough into a ball and wrap in clingfilm, place in the fridge for 10-15 minis so it firms up a little.
-
Once firmed, press the dough down until about 2.5cm in thickness then use a 2.5in/6cm cutter to cut out rounds. Cut out each scone and place on a baking tray. Keep rolling the dough into balls, pushing down and cutting until all the dough is used.
-
Place the scones in an oven heated to gas mark 7/220c, bake for 10-12 minutes until browned. Serve with jam and cream!

I really miss having Scones! Would it be possible to post this recipe with measurements and baking instructions for an American Celiac TIA

Hi, unfortunately I don't know the conversion into cups as I don't work with them much in the UK, best bet would be googling the conversion for each ingredient :)
Made some cheese scones and fruit ones yesterday, very good to say that thay are with gluten free flour.
