Ingredients
  

  • 2 3/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (60g)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup raisins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Sift gluten-free all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, and sugar in a large bowl.
  • Rub in the butter with your fingers or a fork, and stir in raisins.
  • Add the egg and the buttermilk and mix until well incorporated, and fold the dough together.

  • Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Keep in mind that all ovens are different.
  • Let cool before removing to a wire rack.
