The earthy taste of fresh thyme and the richness of Swiss cheese are mixed into these gluten-free scones. You can eat them for breakfast or as a side dish with soups and salads.
Ingredients: 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour. 1 tablespoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped. 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed. 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese. 2/3 cup milk or dairy-free alternative. 1 large egg.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 400F 200C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet. Mix gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and chopped thyme in a large bowl with a whisk. Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut in the cold butter until the mixture looks like big crumbs. Add the shreds of Swiss cheese and stir. Whisk the egg and milk together in a different bowl. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together until they are just barely mixed. Spread the dough out on a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times until it comes together. Make a circle out of the dough that is about an inch thick. Cut the dough into 8 wedges with a sharp knife and place them on the baking sheet that has been prepared. Scones are done when they are golden brown and cooked all the way through after 18 to 20 minutes in the oven. Enjoy while still warm!
