That kumquat glaze looks delicious! I think it would be great on biscuits; I’ll have to follow the link to see what Gina used it for. I too love gf pancakes, so I’ll have to check out her recipe for that also!

The color is problematic with this one. I recommend a mix with a lot of tapioca starch for browning. I’ve never done this recipe with the Bob’s Red Mill flour mix – I find the bean flavor of that mix a little disconcerting, too. The original non-vegan recipe calls for basting the tops with butter. I’m sure that would improve their look, but butter isn’t vegan! I never use margarine. Coconut cream simply does not brown at all, which is why the scones come out a little pale. It’s also why I don’t recommend basting with it. I’m really glad they came out! The kumquat glaze looks great – thanks for trying that, too. It’s great to see someone else trying my recipes.
