Ingredients

• 120 grams Gluten-Free Oats
• 60 grams Rice Flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 240 milliliters Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 30 grams Unsalted Butter
• 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by pulsing the gluten-free oats in a blender or food processor until they resemble a coarse flour-like consistency.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the processed oats, rice flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well incorporated.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, melted unsalted butter, and maple syrup until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a thick batter forms. Ensure there are no lumps.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon, drop small mounds of batter onto the hot pan, spacing them out to avoid sticking together.

Step 7

Cook each scone for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the scones and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked scones to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, serving immediately once all scones are cooked. Enjoy with your favorite toppings!
