Gluten Free Rice Flour Scones with Goat Butter, Lemon and Rosemary
A savory scone made with a Greek twist.
Many of you know that goat milk is better than cows milk by now, but I just couldn't get used to the strong flavor or goats milk.
HOWEVER! this butter is a different story.
Specially when its mixed with herbs and lemon, the flavors are just beautiful.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to make a savory cookie or scone with this goat butter but I knew I wanted to make with herbs and lemon, so here it is!
(Now I come to think this butter will go well with spices too!)

I also used the goat yogurt for this recipe to bring out the flavors and keep the recipe cow's milk free.

If you are wondering why goat's milk over cow's milk, it seems to be easier on the digestive system when it comes to goats milk.
Also note that goat milk is NOT lactose free nor casein free. (but its less compared to cow's milk)
