Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Serves 8 people
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup gluten-free oats
- 1-1/2 cups buckwheat flour
- 1/2 cup tapioca flour
- 6 Tbsp. cold butter
- 1/2 cup gluten-free sourdough starter
- 1/2 cup full-fat yogurt or cream
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. baking powder
Directions
-
Combine oats and flours in a medium-size bowl. Cut in cold butter until flour texture becomes crumbly. Pour in gluten-free sourdough starter and yogurt or cream and stir with a fork until the dough begins to come together. Knead a few times in the bowl to ensure that everything is well-mixed.
-
Cover and let sour 8 to 12 hours.
-
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, beat eggs. In a separate small bowl combine raisins, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and baking powder with a fork until well combined.
-
Add the eggs and raisin mixture to the soured dough and mix together, using a utensil or your hands if it is too hard to handle. Knead or mix the ingredients together well for a couple of minutes to ensure that everything is well-distributed.
-
Grease a baking sheet. Use a large soup spoon or Tbsp. to scoop heaping Tbsp. of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave at least 1 inch of space between scones. You will, most likely, have to bake these in two batches.
-
Once pan is full, transfer scones to preheated oven and bake 12 to 14 minutes or until set on top and golden brown on the bottom. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving or transferring to cooling rack.
