How about a fresh warm Gluten Free Dairy Free Raspberry Pear Scone with your coffee today? These are so easy to make and so satisfying to eat! They are also grain free using tapioca flour, cassava flour, almond flour, and coconut flour. It may sound like a lot of types of flour to have on hand, but honestly, they last a while when you are only using them in small amounts. I have favorite flours I use for different baked goods, after experimenting over the past eighteen years of being gluten free. I was recently gifted several bags of gluten free flours, as well as my favorite almond flour, which is Kirkland Signature Almond Flour. When you are baking and cooking a lot, you go through a lot of ingredients! Thank you, Naomie! The Asian pears I used were also a gift from a friend of a friend’s garden. They’re delicious. The Califa Farms Dairy Free Almond Milk Creamer Pecan Caramel flavor is what I used in these. It’s also amazing in your coffee!

Enjoy your day and happy baking!
