Ingredients
Scale
DRY MIX INGREDIENTS:
- 2 Cups of Erika’s Gluten Free Flour Mix
- 6 Tablespoons Brown Sugar (or dry sweetener of choice)
- 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
- 2 Teaspoons Egg Replacer
- 1 1/2 Teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
CUT IN INGREDIENTS:
- 6 Tablespoons Cold Butter Alternative (I love Melt)
ADD LAST INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 Cup Pumpkin Puree
- 3 Tablespoons Applesauce (or 1 Large Egg)
- 3 Tablespoons Milk Alternative (I used Full Fat Coconut Cream)
- 1 1/2 Teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
GLAZE & SPICED GLAZE INGREDIENTS:
- 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 – 2 Tablespoons Milk Alternative (only add a small amount at a time)
- 1/4 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice (about two or three pinches)
- 1/8 Teaspoon Ground Ginger Powder (about a pinch or two)
Instructions
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick silpat. Dust lightly with Tapioca Starch.
- In mixing bowl, whisk together Dry Ingredients. (I do this all in my stand mixer)
- Cut in the Cold Butter until mixture is dry & crumbly (I use my whisk attachment, but you can use a pastry tool if you are doing it by hand).
- Mix or Fold in Wet Ingredients until ingredients are well incorporated.
- Dough should be stiff and easy to handle.
- Preheat Oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While Oven is Preheating, chill dough in refrigerator.
- Using dusted hands, place dough ball on your lined cookie sheet and gently press into a large circle.
- Dust rolling pin and roll out to approx 1″ thick.
- Use a sharp knife or pastry scraping tool to cut the circle into 6 or 8 triangles.
- Separate the triangles slightly so they can bake on all sides.
- Bake for 13-18 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and place on cooling rack to cool completely before glazing.
- If desired, Glaze the tops of the scones, let harden, and then drizzle the tops with the Spiced Glaze for additional flavor (the drizzle is my favorite!)
- To prepare Glaze, mix the Powdered Sugar with the Vanilla and Milk – but only add the milk a little bit at a time in between stirring to avoid becoming too runny. You want the glaze loose, but not too watery. Reserve 1/3 of the glaze for your Spiced Drizzle.
- To the Spiced Drizzle, mix in the Pumpkin Pie Spice & Ground Ginger. Use a Cake Decorating Bag OR a Ziplock bag with the tip cut off to drizzle over the top of the scones.
Notes
Best when eaten fresh, but can also be store in an airtight container for 2 days at room temperature. Or, store in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can warm the scones in a microwave for 15 seconds at a time if desired.
