Makes 4 scones. Difficulty
Easy
Ingredients
1 cup gf flour 1/4 cup sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 3 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into slices 1/2 cup crème fraiche 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1/2 cup chopped gf ham
Directions
Position the oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat. In a large bowl combine the gf flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter until the largest pieces of butter are the size of peas.
In a small bowl combine the crème fraiche and eggs. Add the wet ingredients all at once to the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork until just combined — don’t over-mix. The dough will be very sticky and wet. Add the cheese and ham; stir gently to incorporate. With a large spoon, drop a fistful size of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake until the scones are deep golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 18-22 minutes. Slide the parchment or non-stick baking mat onto a cooling rack and let the scones cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
