I have a special place in my heart for Rhubarb… ready to pick now through summer. My grandparents had plentiful rhubarb plants sprawling in their garden, and rhubarb pie was typically served after dinner. This beautiful ruby hued perennial has an unique flavor that is distinctive, tart and heavenly scented.

Rhubarb’s sourness is flattered by a constellation of other fruits and flavors, but I like to keep it simple, and not overpower with much… so the plant’s essence is forefront. Look for rhubarb at your local farmers’ market.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups gluten free flour blend I used King Arthur's Measure to Measure
  • 4 tablespoons pure cane sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into 12 pieces
  • 2/3 cup buttermilk low fat
  • 1 large egg I used pastured raised
  • 3/4 teaspoon almond extract pure, not artificial

Add Ins:

  • 1 cup fresh rhubarb cleaned, dried, 1/3" dice
  • 2 teaspoons pure cane sugar
  • 1/3 cup toasted slivered almonds chopped

Topping:

  • 1 teaspoon milk
  • 2 teaspoons pure cane sugar

Instructions

  • Add butter to a piece of waxed paper - freeze as you start the recipe for 15 minutes.
    Add a piece of parchment paper to a cookie sheet, set aside.
    Add first 6 DRY ingredients to a large bowl. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
  • Place buttermilk to a pyrex measuring cup - add egg and almond extract, blend well with a fork.
  • Add frozen butter to the bowl and cut in with a pastry blender until the size of peas.
  • Add diced rhubarb to a bowl to fit. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons sugar, mix in.
    Add rhubarb and almonds to the bowl of dry ingredients, mix in.
  • Make a well in the center - add the wet ingredients and mix in with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together. Quickly bring the dough together with your hands in the bowl, and divide in half.
    Pat the dough into a 8" circle, 1" thick on the cookie sheet - repeat with second circle.
    Cut the dough into even triangles - 6 or 8 triangles each circle. Separate the triangles if you like for a crispier scone.
  • Brush tops with milk and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of sugar on top of all the scones.
    Place the scones in the oven and cook for 18 - 20 minutes until golden.
  • Cool on a wire rack - Drizzle with Rhubarb Glaze and let set.

Notes

Rhubarb Glaze:
Add 1/4 cup chopped rhubarb with 1 tablespoon sugar and 2 tablespoons filtered water in a small pot. Simmer uncovered until cooked yet still bright pink; 3 minutes. Cool. Add to a small food processor and whirl until broken up. Add 4 tablespoons confectioner's sugar and 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice - blend until almost smooth. Remove to a small bowl. Glaze will thicken as it sets. To thicken add more confectioner's sugar, to thin add water.   
Drizzle over cooled scones.
