This is a simple and delicious recipe I created the other day with what I had on hand (hence the array of flours used). They don’t rise as much as typical scones I have baked in the past, but they are very moist and have a terrific flavor.
Orange Poppyseed Scones
Ingredients:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix almond, corn, millet, brown rice, and tapioca flours together in large mixing bowl. Stir in xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
Prepare flaxseed meal.
Cut shortening into flour mix using your hands. Work the mixture until it forms equal sized crumbles. Using a fork, combine the prepared flaxseed meal with the rest of the ingredients until the mixture becomes evenly crumbly.
Still using a fork, mix in orange juice and poppyseeds. Once dough becomes well mixed, turn onto lightly floured surface (millet flour is recommended) and fold over about three times. Roll about 3/4 of an inch thick and cut into squares using a sharp knife. You can also use a cookie cutter to make circles. Place onto ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake at 375 degrees for about 13 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Let cool and serve with orange jelly or maple syrup.
could coconut oil be used in place of vegetable shortening?
Yes!
I just made these. They are fantastic!!!! Thank you so much for the recipe. The only thing is I did t see where to put the orange zest so I just mixed it into the scone dough. Other than that, these are a new favorite. Can’t wait to make them again!!!
