Gluten Free Gruyere Basil Scones

---

3 cups all purpose gluten free flour blend

1 cup grated gruyere cheese

1 tablespoon sucanat or coconut sugar

3 teaspoons gluten free baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum

8 tablespoons cold grass fed salted butter, cut into chunks

1 large egg, room temperature

1 1/2 cups milk

1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Preheat oven to 350 F

Whisk egg and milk to combine. Set aside. Pulse butter, cheese, and all the dry ingredients in a food processor until it binds together. Add just enough of the egg and milk mix to form a soft dough (but not runny - you may not need it all).

Drop tablespoonfuls of the dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving room in between. Bake for roughly 40 minutes (more or less) or until a stick inserted into the center comes out clean.
