Ingredients 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Gluten-Free Flour
  • 1 cup Grated Zucchini
  • ¼ cup Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Cold Butter cut into small pieces
  • 1 large Egg beaten
  • ¼ cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Zest

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). 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 butter pieces and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the grated zucchini and lime zest.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Add this to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a circle about 1-inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
