Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 1 third cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter, cold and diced
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.5 cup Whole Milk
- 1 cup Gluten-Free Chocolate Chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the cold, diced butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a small bowl, beat together the eggs, vanilla extract, and milk.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the flour-butter mixture, stirring just until combined and a dough forms.
Step 6
Fold in the gluten-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 7-inch circle, about 1 inch thick.
Step 8
Use a sharp knife to cut the circle into 8 wedges.
Step 9
Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 11
Remove the scones from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your gluten-free chocolate chip scones!
