Excited by the ingredients, totally disappointed about the food wastage due to failed recipe. How on earth does that amount of dry ingredients bind together with 1 egg & 3 tablespoons of honey. Impossible! & despite adding fluid they just didn’t stick. Sadly inedible, straight to bin for our attempt
Something is missing from this recipe. I had to add water again and again to get to the part where I can make the roll. Failed recipe.
I just made them and followed the direction as given (except I used dried lemon zest). They are very good…..time for tea!
What would you think about substituting ginger eo for the fresh ginger? Would 1 drop be the equivalent?
You seem to always use almond flour in your recipes versus an all purpose gluten free flour. Any reasoning behind that? Curious!!
I tried a variation on the recipe, I did one cup almond meal, 1 cup rice flour blend with xanthan gum, 3 tbs. coconut flour, chia seeds, lemon juice, extra egg, 3 tbs liquid egg whites, no honey but added stevia. Turned out pretty tasty for a very low sugar scone. I always liked something with my coffee. I also added tsp of baking soda and a couple dashes of Himalayan salt. I find when doing gf recipes, mixing the flour blends is ideal.
So that would be an entirely different recipe, right?
Just tried the scones! I had to add more moisture to be able to do anything with them. I added Greek Yogurt, Ghee and a little lemon juice. This is the first time I’ve baked with gluten free flour so maybe when I get use to it it will be better. I haven’t gotten my almond flour yet so used just a all purpose gluten free. Would that have made the difference in moisture? Otherwise they aren’t bad.
It definitely could help
My diet is so limited that this recipe seems like something I would enjoy. I think I would also add some flax meal to it even though the egg adds moisture. Thanks for posting!
Your recipes are fabulous and have inspired me to start cooking and baking again
I am allergic to eggs and was wondering if these would work with a flax or chia egg.
I’ve had people use flax eggs in other recipes and had them work great!
What’s a flax egg? Does this represent flax substitute for an egg??
