Gluten-Free Maple Raspberry Scones

Ali Segersten (author)

Enjoy these perfect little gluten-free and vegan scones during berry season! They are the perfect way to use up some of those freshly picked berries. You may also use frozen berries, just make sure to partially thaw them first! Replace the raspberries with fresh blackberries, black raspberries, diced fresh peaches, or blueberries if desired. With the added moisture from the berries and maple syrup I have made them into “drop” scones, a method that is much easier and quicker to prepare.

These are AMAZING! Quite rich, actually. I splurged and served fudge sauce with them…not needed at all but made for a fantastic dessert.

Isn't xanthan gum bad for you? Please clarify this for me.
Thanks!

These are absolutely delicious! I didn't have quite enough brown rice flour, so substituted 1/2 cup of rice flour with buckwheat flour, and I loved the taste of the buckwheat. I think I'll use slightly less maple syrup next time. The rasberries were PERFECT.
