Lovely flavour, light and moist and not crumbly. They hold together brilliantly and no spread during cooking.

Very nice scones and really easy to make. I've never had any success with normal wheat scones so I was really pleased with the result. I used buttermilk for the second batch I made - just as nice but needs a little more flour as the buttermilk isn't as thick as the yoghurt. Lovely with my homemade jam!

I didn't have any rice flour so used the doves farm gluten free plain flour. I added a little sour milk to the yoghurt to make up the 300mls and the result was fabulous.. especially with my home made dandelion marmarlade x

Obvious mistake.... Baking power contains Gluten..... Might have realised if I had coeliac rather than cooking them for a friend!
Yogurt gave a creamy texture so on my next batch I will use half yogurt half water and Gluten free baking powder!!

I've also tried this recipe and they turn out lovely as single scones too, much better than what you buy in the shops under the guise of gluten free scones!

Because of my daughters intollerances i had to also omit sugar. I had to change the yoghurt to Sheeps Yoghurt. As the sheeps yoghurt is very solid and creamy i had to add a small amount of water to the mix. I made as a scone round. The Scones were absolutely delicious.

I made these this afternoon and they are absolutely delicious. I made one big scone. I patted it in to shape 2" thick,dusted it with flour and then lightly scored it in to 6. It came out looking beautiful. Have a go. Good luck!
