Fair Scones

I'm feeling a little sorry for myself because I'm still recovering from surgery and can't make it to our local fair. I've only missed once in the past 20 years before this. Anyway, I was missing the fair and missing those really yummy fair scones and thought I'd try making them gluten-free. So I found a copy-cat recipe online and decided to modify it to gluten-free. It worked! My 2 gluten-free kids and I were in heaven. Even my kids' friends who were here liked them.

Here's the recipe:

Puyallup Fair (Fischer) Scones (modified recipe)

2 C gluten-free Flour (Br. Rice, Potato starch, Tapioca starch, xanthan gum)

2 tsp. Baking Powder

1 tsp. Egg Replacer

2 Tbs. Sugar

1/4 tsp. Salt (More if you use shortening with no salt.)

Sift above ingredients and add:

1/3 C Butter

Use pastry cutter to chop butter into fine pieces, should be well-mixed with flour.

Then add:

3/4 C Milk (Rice milk worked for me)

Stir together until it forms a ball in the bowl. Divide the dough in half. Form each half into a ball and flatten to 3/4 - 1" thick on a well floured board. Cut into 4 pie shaped pieces and gently place on cookie sheet sprayed with NS spray.

Bake at 450 degrees for 6 minutes then turn oven temp. down to 400 for 6 more minutes. They should be slightly browned on top.

Split in half and serve with butter and raspberry jam. Enjoy!

these DO sound good!

Just wondering...instead of the egg replacer, should I just use one egg? Would like to make an attempt....have not baked ONE THING since going gluten-free in January.

You will have to reduce the liquid added to make up for the difference. Try taking the rice milk down to 3/4 cup.

Try taking it down by a quarter of a cup to 1/2 cup. I guess I wasn't reading straight.

What are the portions of each of the flours used? And how much xanthan gum. So far I only use mixes for my baking (except choc. chip cookies). So, I am also like Dingo Girl, I need explicit directions. And I would use an egg as I have no egg replacer.

No! They don't call for eggs. I just put in the egg replacer to help with leavening and give the scones a light texture. I'm sure you could put in 3 tsp. of baking powder if you don't have the egg replacer.

Yes, I live in Federal Way. Twenty minutes from the Puyallup Fairgrounds.

I make a mix of 3 C Br. Rice flour, 1 C Potato starch, 1/2 C Tapioca starch and 2-1/2 tsp. Xanthan gum. I sift it together 3 times and then measure the flour from that. And again, the recipe doesn't call for egg - it would wreck it!

Can you use canola oil instead of the butter/shortening?

Thank you. I wrote everything down on the print out. I hope to try these this next week. They sound so yummy.

I am going to use Spectrum shortening in place of butter. I use the Spectrum in my choc. chip cookies. Hopefully these will turn out without the butter.

Armetta--they will be fine with the Spectrum, I'm sure. I substitute it for butter or margarine all the time. Never had a problem! :)

I was just at the Puyallup fair yesterday! I have been gluten free for 18 years and have always missed the scones. Funny thing, my sister asked me to pick her up one and I said no, I wasn't going to stand in line for 30 minuters for something I couldn't eat! LOL Thanks a million!!!! Can't wait to give it a try.....

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      So I have the Benfo, Thiamax, and Neuromag along with my Super B Complex. When I read the labels it says take 3/take 4 times a day but one pill a day is ok correct since its 4 pills at breakfast.

      tldr: "we tested your daughter with one test and that result does not suggest Celiac. However, the test we used should not be used as the initial screening test for celiac (like it appears they did) because it misses a lot of cases ("low specificity"). No further testing is scheduled or pending" We eat "gluten" and our bodies digest part of it into "deamidated gliadin" (GLIADIN (DEAMID)). The gliadin is what actually triggers the Celiac disease pathway. The celiac's immune system sees gliadin much like an invading virus, and makes antibodies (AB) against gliadin. Each antibody has the ability to recognize a specific target (anti-gliadin antibodies recognize gliadin). When antibodies find their specific target, they stick to it and call in other parts of the immune system to help eliminate the target. This process also causes the immune system to make a lot more of that antibody, and your test was designed to measure if there was an elevated level of type A (IgA) anti-gliadin antibodies. Antibodies, which are also called immunoglobulins (Ig), come in different types (e.g. class "A" or "G"). Think of antibodies as different kinds of cars, and antibody types as different colors of car. An "A" type (color) is called IgA, and a G type is called IgG. IgA's are more relevant to Celiac disease than are the IgG's or other types. Unfortunately, some people don't make very much of the IgA class (like not making aqua-colored cars, even though they make the same cars in green) and that's a common reason for the gliadin-Ab-IgA test to fail to identify celiac. As Trents wrote, they should have given her a "total IgA" test and probably tested her for the anti-tTG IgA antibody.

      Hi @tiffanygosci Well done for reaching out,  fantastic you have found this forum. It sounds like you are managing the diet well, it can be overwhelming at first, but it will get easier.     I wonder if you have seen the short film 'Glutened'? - someone shared it on this forum a few months ago and it reminded me of how isolating it can be, particularly at first, when you don't know anyone with celiac disease.  *see link for film below. I realise now how blessed I was that when I was diagnosed two friends were also diagnosed around the same time, as we shared a lot of tips and recipes at the start.   Since then the number of people I know diagnosed with coeliac disease has grown and grown, there seems to be a much greater awareness of it among healthcare professionals and the public, at least this side of the Atlantic (I'm British).  I think in time you may find this, too. That said, those two coeliac buddies were 'straightforward' cases who seemed to recover very quickly when on a gluten-free diet - I struggled for some time.  So I found that I spent much more time discussing things with this online coeliac family. If you have any more questions, we're here for you.  I hope your event on 15th goes well.  Sounds like a good start!  I like you am not keen on Facebook, but perhaps setting up an account short-term might help? * https://vimeo.com/486284734 Cristiana
