Gluten-free Apple Cinnamon Scones are a classic scone recipe, filled with brown sugar, cinnamon, and diced apples, with a cinnamon sugar topping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Scones<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Apple Cinnamon is one of my favorite Fall flavors.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You should know by now my love for cinnamon<\/a> runs deep. Add apples into the mix? Even better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Fall I’ve decided to share this gluten-free Apple Cinnamon Scones recipe. It’s the perfect Fall scone recipe for weekend baking, tea parties, or even a Fall bridal or baby shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll have a thick, fluffy scone studded with apple chunks throughout and topped with cinnamon sugar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’re insanely good alongside a cup of hot Apple Cider.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, they’re pretty simple to make and made with pretty classic baking ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s chat about scones for a minute.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The batter itself is easy to make.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll stir together all of your dry ingredients. Then add your butter chunks and stir those in till they’re distributed evenly throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next up, you’ll combine your wet ingredients and whisk them together. Pour them into your dry ingredients and work your dough till it’s “shaggy.” Which means, till it’s just starting to come together, but is still pretty chunky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, you’ll dump your shaggy dough onto parchment paper and work it together with your hands till you can get it into a disc-like shape that stays together, and that’s about an inch tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whisk up your cinnamon sugar topping and sprinkle it across the top. YUM!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gently slice your disc-shape into 6-8 scones, and scoot them back a little so there’s at least an inch in between each scone. This gives them space to puff up, but not too much space so they don’t spread all over the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, my favorite trick is to pop them into the freezer while the oven preheats.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For scones to be the best texture, you want your wet ingredients (especially your butter) to be super cold. This way it melts into the scones at the proper time, so you end up with pockets that give you light and fluffy scones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So instead of worrying about keeping each ingredient super cold, I just pop my scones in the freezer at the end while the oven preheats. Then everything is cold, without stressing or rushing around while making the scones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
