5 tsp FREEE Baking Powder
1 tsp FREEE Xanthan Gum
50g oil
1 tbsp golden syrup

Line a large baking tray with parchment and pre-heat the oven.
Put the rice flour, baking powder and xanthan gum into a bowl and blend together well.
Drizzle the oil and syrup over the flour and blend with a fork until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Stir in the sugar and sultanas.
Squeeze the lemon juice into a jug and add water to reach 250ml of liquid.
Pour the liquid into the bowl and stir to make a soft, spongy mass of dough.
Spoon into 12 piles of dough on the prepared baking tray.
Gently tease the piles of dough into circles and brush the tops with water.
Bake for 25–28 minutes, until golden brown.

This is the first recipe that none of the family enjoyed and I had to end up throwing them away. They didn't taste at all like scones and had a strange spongy type texture. I did follow the recipe exactly but as this is the first time I have used rice flour in a cake recipe I am not sure whether this is the normal result. All the other recipes I have tried have been brilliant and delicious and can recommend but unfortunately, this isn't a recipe I would use again unless anyone can give me some tips about the results of using rice flour.
