Ingredients 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Gluten-free flour blend
  • ¼ cup Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Cold butter, cubed
  • ½ cup Dried apricots, chopped
  • ½ cup Dried cranberries
  • ⅔ cup Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and cut it in with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the chopped apricots and cranberries.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a circle about 1 inch thick. Cut the dough into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
