Some of you might be thinking gluten free, did you all just get diagnosed with celiac disease? No, we just thought that it would be fun to try out some gluten free recipes and try our hand at using alternative flours....I thought these scones where very good, they had a very distinct flavor, but good! So if you need to eat gluten free for health reasons or just want to try something new I would definitely try these! Enjoy.Gluten Free Cranberry Orange Almond Scones
