    Maple-Oat Scones (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.
    Maple-Oat Scones (Gluten-Free) -

    Celiac.com 04/10/2009 - I know there has been a lot of talk lately about whether Starbucks will begin adding gluten-free offerings to their now-forbidden gluten-filled glass cases. Time will tell if they do so, if they do it safely (those kinds of cases are a huge source of cross-contamination), and if they do it tastily. But I'm not going to sit idly by and wait for Starbucksto see the light. I invented my own Starbucks-like maple scone, and I dare say it's better than any they may devise!

    I made this recipe dairy-free, but you could use dairy yogurt and regular milk instead. I have also provided alternatives for those of you watching your sugar intake, so everyone may partake.

    Gluten-Free Maple-Oat Scones

    Ingredients:
    1¼ cup certified gluten-free rolled oats (You may substitute an equal portion of Jules' Gluten Free All Purpose Flour in lieu of these oatsif you avoid oats in your diet)
    2 cups Jules' Gluten Free All Purpose Flour* (+ additional to flour the rolling surface)
    ¼ cup granulated cane sugar (or Splenda)
    ½ teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
    ¼ cup Earth Balance Shortening or Buttery Sticks
    1 cup vanilla (soy or dairy) yogurt
    2 large eggs
    2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup (or dark agave nectar)

    (*Note- This recipe calls for Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour which maybe made at home according to directions found in my books, Nearly Normal Cooking for Gluten-Free Eating and The First Year: Celiac Disease and Living Gluten-Free, as well as in various media links on my website.)

    Glaze Ingredients (optional):
    1 ½ cups confectioner's sugar
    2 Tablespoons+ vanilla (soy or dairy) milk
    2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup (or dark agave nectar)

    Directions:
    Preheat the oven to 400 F static or 375 F convection.

    Pour the oats into a blender or food processor and blend into a fine flour.(Or use equal amount Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour)

    In a large bowl whisk together the dry ingredients: oat flour, Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour, sugar, baking soda and baking powder. Cut in the shortening using a pastry cutter, two knives or an electric mixer.

    Ina small bowl, stir the eggs together with a fork to mix. Pour eggs into the mixed dry ingredients, then add the yogurt and maple syrup. Stirwell to combine.

    Turn the dough onto a clean counter or pastry mat liberally dusted with my Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour. Coat your hands with the flour as well, then scoop the dough in a ball onto the mat.

    Pat the dough out into a flat disc, approximately 1 inch thick. Using a butter knife, cut the dough into three sections,then cut each section into smaller triangles. You should wind up with approximately 12 triangle-shaped scones. Make sure there is not too much extra flour on the tops of the scones before baking - brush off lightly, if necessary.

    Place each scone onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until they spring back when lightly touched. Do not overcook! Remove the entire baking sheet to a cooling rack.

    After cooling for at least 5 minutes, stir together the glaze ingredients,adding the milk only one tablespoon at a time until it reaches a pourable, but not thin, glaze consistency. Slowly pour over the tops of each scone. Some of the glaze will pool around the scones onto the parchment paper, so leave the scones on the baking sheet for this glaze step unless you are serving immediately and want the glaze to pool on the serving plates.

    I've made these twice, and the proportion of wet to dry ingredients creates a mix that is more like pancakes than scones - there is no way to pick the dough up, let alone shape it in to a ball. I'm giving it a 3, because I think this is a simple error and if the proportions are corrected (though I haven't figured that out - it seems that you have to add close to twice the amount of flour called for) it would be a must have!

    Celiac.com 11/17/2008 - One of the great pleasures of the holidays is having a wide assortment of goodies around to enjoy with family and friends. Don’t get left out of the fun just because you’re gluten-intolerant. Organize an old-fashioned cookie exchange with a gluten-free twist. Here’s how to do it...
     Pick a date and invite people to participate:

     The easy route: just get your family and friends together for the event at your house. Whether or not they are gluten-intolerant, these recipes will make everyone happy. They really won’t miss the gluten. Or, if you belong to a celiac support group, this is a natural activity to suggest.  Alternatively, you can do a more public event. There are probably more gluten-free people in your local area than you think there are. Put a...

    Celiac.com 01/18/2009 - This recipe was born of my new year's desire to experiment with new grains and flavors to achieve more nutritious results in my baking.
    I was speaking to a support group last Friday night and one of the audience questions was about this very topic: the concern that gluten-free baking often produces less healthy results. I completely agree.
    Now, much of my gluten-free baking and recipes are already on the low-sugar and low-fat end of the spectrum - something I feel very strongly about in my own diet. Take that statement with a grain of Southern sugar though, because this Southern girl knows that sweets still have their place! As I said in my discussion Friday night, chocolate chip cookies were never meant to be good for you!
    However, wherever...

    Celiac.com 06/11/2010 - Most American parades and festivals revolve around good old fashioned American food. Most people will be enjoying corn-dogs, French fries, waffle-cone sundaes and funnel cakes. Fourth of July celebrations are not likely to be very different from other festivals, and as a gluten-free person, it is important to be prepared for some good old fashioned American junk food-gluten-free.
    Converting your favorite junk foods to gluten-free may take a bit of creativity, but don't despair, it is possible. There are places offering gluten-free junk food options, but making your own gluten-free junk food is fun and takes the worry out of cross-contamination. The following recipes and suggestions are some American favorites but gluten-free.
    Funnel cakes are originally...

    Celiac.com 03/11/2011 - St. Patrick's Day is once again upon us, which means it's a good time to prepare for a successful gluten-free celebration of the wearing of the green.
    One good thing for people on a gluten-free diet is that most traditional corned beef and cabbage recipes are gluten free. So, of course, are carrots and potatoes.
    If you plan of making corned beef, you should know that most commercial corned beef is gluten free. Some brands that are specifically labeled 'gluten free,' or which the makers' websites claim to be gluten-free, include:

    Brookfield Farms Colorado Premium - all corned beef products Cook's Freirich - all corned beef Giant Eagle Grobbel's Gourmet corned beef briskets Hormel Libby's Canned Meats (Corned Beef and Corned Beef Hash) Market...
