“If you, like me, love a good scone but are cutting grains as well as gluten out of your diet, I have a recipe you simply must try!
Scones are sort of like an English version of the American biscuit, but usually is a little sweeter. These Apple Cinnamon Scones are simple to make and delightful for breakfast or tea time.” – Carol Kicinski, Simply Gluten-Free
