Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Step 2
In a small bowl add milk and lemon juice. Set aside to curdle.
Step 3
Fresh Grated Lemon Peel
Place gluten-free flour blend, coconut palm sugar, baking powder and poppy seeds into a medium sized bowl and blend. Cube the butter and cut into the flour blend until it resembles pea sized crumbles.
Step 4
Add curdled milk, egg, vanilla and lemon peel, and chopped candied ginger to flour blend and mix until dough forms.
Step 5
Cut Scones
Place dough on a floured flat surface and kneed a few times. Mound the dough so it is circular and slightly higher in the center. Spray a long knife with non-stick spray and cut into 8 equal triangles.
Step 6
Place on a silicone sheet or parchment covered cookie tray and bake for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. (Cover and refrigerate over night if desired. Return to room temperature before baking.)
Step 7
Cooling Scones on a Wire Rack
Remove from oven and place immediately onto a cooling rack. Cool completely before glazing.
