Single Gluten Free Scones Recipe

It’s been a minutes since I posted a recipe, so thought I’d kickstart your weekend with some inspiration for your Saturday morning with this gluten free scones recipe.

My kids absolutely adore it when I whip up some scones for them on a lazy Saturday morning. It’s become our little tradition. But ever since I discovered that gluten is the one of the culprits behind my migraines, I’ve had to say goodbye to it. It’s a bummer because I’m a bread fanatic. There’s nothing like the satisfaction of biting into a soft, chewy baguette, or the comforting aroma of bread fresh out of the oven, with a pat of butter slowly melting on top. It’s one of life’s simple pleasures that I truly miss.

My daughters absolutely cherish our scone Saturdays. Throughout the week they chatter about the upcoming treat. They beg for just one more hint of what flavor I’ll be baking next. It’s heartwarming to see their eyes light up at the mere mention of the weekend, knowing that a warm, delicious scone awaits them. It’s a tradition that’s become more than just about the scones; it’s about the joy and eagerness that fills our home, making each weekend morning something to look forward to with great anticipation.

As the weekend approaches, the anticipation in our home builds. My daughters, with their keen senses and memories full of delicious Saturdays past, start their countdown to the moment I tie my apron and the scent of baking fills the air.

Their excitement is palpable, their joy infectious. It’s a reminder of the simple pleasures that bind us—the shared experiences that become cherished memories. And as I measure out the ingredients and the girls help mix, we’re not just baking scones; we’re crafting moments that will linger long after the last crumbs have been savored. This tradition has blossomed into a weekly celebration of family, love, and the warm embrace of a gluten-free lifestyle that doesn’t compromise on taste or happiness.

So, you can imagine my dilemma. How do I keep the scone tradition alive without the gluten? I scoured the internet for a good gluten free scones recipe, but nothing quite hit the mark. Some were too dry, others too crumbly, and a few just didn’t taste right.

And here’s the other thing – I’m the only one who’s got to skip the gluten. I tried making a whole batch of this gluten free scones, but ended up not being able to eat it all myself. So ended up creating a recipe for only one scone because to be really honest, I don’t want to eat that many calories and also why have extra food lying around that won’t get eaten.

That’s when I decided to take matters into my own hands and create my own gluten free scones recipe. And let me tell you, it was a game-changer!

So, when we’re talking treats like scones, I’m totally fine with just one that’s gluten-free. It’s perfect for me and doesn’t leave any extras lying around.

The Experiment Begins: Gluten Free Scones Recipe

Armed with my favorite gluten-free flour blend and a determination to make something delicious, I started experimenting. I wanted to keep the gluten free scones light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. After a few (okay, maybe more than a few) attempts, I finally nailed it.

When it comes to gluten-free baking, the flour you choose can make all the difference. There’s a whole world of gluten-free flour blends out there, each with its own unique properties and flavors.

After trying out a few, I’ve settled on the Namaste flour blend that I pick up from Costco. It’s been a turning point for me. The blend is versatile and gives a great texture to baked goods, without that gritty feeling some gluten-free flours leave behind. Whether I’m whipping up a batch of cookies or baking bread, this flour makes sure my gluten-free treats are almost as delicious as their traditional counterparts. Plus, buying it from Costco means I get a good deal on a quality product – and who doesn’t love that?

As we wrap up this tale of gluten-free discoveries and family traditions, it’s clear that the journey to the perfect scone is paved with love, laughter, and a sprinkle of creativity. Now, it’s time to roll up our sleeves and dive into the heart of the matter—the recipe itself. So, grab your apron, preheat your oven, and let’s get ready to create a scone that’s not just a treat for the taste buds, but a celebration of our unique dietary paths and the joy they bring to our weekends.

And to really drive this home, I live in Seattle and this is a travel blog, so it would be silly not to suggest that you think about a trip here.

Seattle, the Emerald City, is a gem whether you’re flying solo or bringing the kids along. It’s a place where the coffee is as rich as the culture and the views are as breathtaking as the adventures. Stroll through Pike Place Market, take in the panoramic vistas from the Space Needle, or explore the vibrant neighborhoods—each with its own unique charm. And let’s not forget the food scene; from fresh seafood to innovative farm-to-table dishes, there’s something to delight every palate. Seattle is a city that invites exploration and creates memories, no matter who’s along for the ride.

You could even check out some of the iconic bakeries here like Macrina or Wildflower, which both offer gluten free pastry options. So check out this 3 Day itinerary for your upcoming trip:)
