Vanilla Glaze

1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 tablespoons rice milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Step 2

    Whisk together the yogurt, rice milk, lemon juice, and vanilla. Set aside.

    Step 3

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour mix, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

    Step 4

    Add the rice milk mixture and canola oil, and stir with a wooden spoon until combined but still clumpy.

    Step 5

    Flour a work surface lightly with a little gluten-free flour mix, and turn out the dough. Lightly flour your hands. Sprinkle the dough with a little flour mix.

    Step 6

    Divide the dough in half. Shape into two 6-inch disks. Cut the disks into 6 pie-shaped wedges. Place the scones on the baking sheet.

    Step 7

    Bake in the center of the oven for 13 minutes, or until very lightly golden. Transfer to a cooling rack. Let cool, and then spoon 1 teaspoon of glaze over the top of each scone. Let set.
