I used my fairy cake or muffin tin for these as the dough is quite soft, otherwise it would dry put too much, just grease the tins with dairy free spread so they don't stick.
I also have a few gluten and dairy scone recipes which I'll share in another post too.
You could just use dairy butter or marg if your only gluten free plus milk or buttermilk( if buttermilk leave out bextartar)
So here we go.
Preheat your oven to 200degrees Celsius and if you have a baking tray place it in the oven to warm.
Ingredients for 4 to 6 small scones depending on your cake tin size just double if you want more.
25grammes of coconut flour
125grammes of rice flour
75grammes of potato flour
1.5tsp baking powder
1 teaspoon/tsp of bextartar
1/4 tsp of xanathan gum
30grammes of caster sugar
25grammes of dairy free spread, I use pure dairy free sunflower spread.
150 to 200mls of coconut milk
Weigh coconut flour into bowl. Sieve in rice and potato flour, bextartar, xanathan gum and baking powder. Whisk lightly or stir to combine. Rub in spread to form breadcrumb like mix. Add sugar and stir to combine. Measure out 150mls of milk and add to mix, stir with knife or spoon to incorporate. Add more milk until a soft sticky dough is formed. You may need slightly more than 200 or less it just depends on the flours. You want a soft dough but not runny if it's too runny just add a little more rice flour and combine, a spoonful at a time.spoon dough into greased cake tins and place tin on baking tray in oven to cook. Bake at 200 for approx. 15 to 20 mins until they sound hollow when you tap their base. Turn down oven to 180degrees if they are browning too much and not cooked yet. They will not be golden brown like ordinary scones but more of a pale white with brown tinges.
Note
I get bextartar in my local supermarket as well as Supervalu and superquinn it is dairy, gluten and egg free and says so on the tin, it's not expensive maybe 2 euro for a biggish tin.
I use gluten free baking powder, dr oketer bra and which I can get in my local supermarket as well as superquinn, and I'm sure dunnes stores and tesco and Supervalu probably carry it too as they carry most dr oketer products. It's about 1.69euro for a tin.
I use doves farm xanathan gum as that's the best price one I can get, my health food store does it as does superquinn at the same price about 3.75euro for tin, but a little goes a long way.
I use Pure dairy free spread, tesco dunnes stores and superquinn do this line, I prefer the sunflower one but there is an olive oil and a soya one too. My local supermarket and tesco are the only ones carrying the sunflower one. It's 1.69euro for 500gramme tub in tesco.
For the flours my boys seem to be fine with these purchased from my local Asian food store even though they do not specify gluten or dairy free, I have also used the brands from the health food store that are gluten free with good results so use whichever suits you best. I mix my own flour blend as I found the texture of most blends to grainy, the only good one was Glebe Farm brand but it is not always available in my local supermarket, only place I had found it, plus it was nearly 4euros a kilo so very expensive when you use it to bake everything from bread to pizza to cakes.
I use Koko coconut milk in a carton about1.69euro a litre in superquinn, it doesn't leave a coconut taste but you could substitute almond or soya or rice milk of you prefer. My kids did take almond milk but I found coconut better for baking and now all 3 prefer it for drinking, especially the chocolate one.
