2 cups gluten free flour blend

1/3 cup sugar

1 tbls baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup (l stick) butter, cut into cubes

2 tbls fresh grated grapefruit zest

3/4 cup fresh squeezed grapefruit juice

ICING:

1 cup powdered sugar

splash of grapefruit juice

Preheat oven to 450 F. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, guar gum (if needed), and salt. Lightly whisk to combine. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until it's crumbly and the size of peas. Add in zest and half the grapefruit juice to the mixture and work to combine, adding a little more juice as needed until dough is moistened and will stick together when lightly pressed. Turn out onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and gently press into a 10 inch circle (about the size of a dinner plate). Cut dough into 8 pieces and separate on the baking sheet so they don't bake into each other. Brush tops with a little almond milk (or milk of choice). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cooked and lightly golden brown. Cool before frosting. For the icing: Combine powdered sugar and juice in a small bowl. Add juice by the teaspoon full until the icing is just barely thin enough to drizzle on scones.
