Introduction

this is a recipe I reworked to be gluten free... Many substitutions can probably be made to make it healthier... I have not tried any but I would recommend almond milk instead of the buttermilk, margarine instead of butter and a sugar substitute instead of sugar.. Again, I have not tried any substitutions, so I cant tell ya what it would taste like! :) this is a recipe I reworked to be gluten free...

Ingredients

    *Arowhead Mills Gluten Free Pancake & Baking Mix, 2 cup (remove)
    Baking Powder, 2.5 tsp (remove)
    Salt, .25 tsp (remove)
    Butter, unsalted, 5 tbsp (remove)
    *Buttermilk, .25 cup (remove)
    Granulated Sugar, .25 cup (remove)
    Honey, 3 tbsp (remove)
    Egg, fresh, 1 large (remove)
    Cranberries, dried, sweetened (craisins), 0.33 cup (remove)
    egg white, fresh, 1 large (remove)
    *Turbinado Sugar (Sugar in the Raw), 6 tsp (remove)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°.

2. Weigh or lightly spoon baking mix into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine baking mix, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Cover and chill baking mix mixture 10 minutes.

3. Combine buttermilk and next 4 ingredients (through egg), stirring with a whisk until well blended. Stir in cranberries and nuts. Add buttermilk mixture to baking mix mixture; stir just until dough is moist.

4. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured (baking mix) surface. Pat dough into an 8-inch circle on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut dough into 12 wedges (do not separate the wedges). Brush egg white over dough; sprinkle evenly with turbinado sugar. Bake at 400° for 13 minutes or until golden. Remove from pan; cool 2 minutes on wire racks. Serve warm or at room temperature.
