Description

Shortbread is a classic Scottish cookie that is known for its buttery and crumbly texture. It is a perfect treat for tea time or as an after-dinner dessert. This recipe puts a twist on the traditional shortbread recipe by using rice flour instead of all-purpose flour. The result is a gluten-free option that is just as delicious as the original.

Cook Time

45 minutes

Ingredients

Method
