Biscuit - Scones

Printable Recipe
I really-REALLY liked the taste of these, but they were just a bit crumbly - and you can bet I was licking all the crumbs off the plate. LOL

Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 15 mins
Yield:  9-12
around 10 carbs / 1 sugar each
from; http://www.anaussiewithcrohns.com

Ingredients:

 3 cups almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 egg
and
1 egg (for glazing)


Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix flour and baking soda together in a bowl.

Rub coconut oil into the flour with your fingertips.

mix egg and almond milk together and add to flour and mix well.

Sprinkle more almond flour onto a board and lightly knead the dough.  It will be wetter and more fragile than traditional scone dough.\

Use a rolling pin to roll dough to 1 1/2 inches thickness.

Use a scone cutter (I just used a metal measuring cup) to cut out rounds from the dough, then re-roll to cut out more from the remaining dough.

** Or you can just form them by hand like I did - its easier**

Place scones on a baking tray which has been covered with parchment paper.

Lightly beat the egg then use a pastry brush to brush onto tops of scones.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 15 mins until risen and golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack.
Serve warm with Nature's Hollow or homemade Preserves

Enjoy :-)

    They look good, but I do count calories and 3 cups of almond flour have a LOT of calories! That's just me, not everyone and I probably shouldn't have even mentioned it, sorry:(
    But, I love how you try so many things and it obviously works well for you!

      I think by adding and egg to the dough will help with that - maybe. Will try next time.

Some tips if you are having trouble

  • First make sure that you are staying under the 15/6. 15 sugars and 6 servings of carbs for the whole day. Thats no more than 5 sugars and 2 servings of carbs per meal.
  • Track all of your sugar/carbs. Add everything from your meal together and count them that way.
  • Try to stop eating whole grain carbs after 3pm.
  • Make sure you drink lots of water.
  • Count everything that you put into your mouth. Even sauces - everything , check labels.
  • Make sure that you don't eat any artificial sugars. Check labels, if it says sugar free - look in the ingredients, look for....sucralose, aspartame, saccharine in the ingredients. Those are BAD!
  • Going #2 is a big problem when a lot of people start the BFC. I have solved that problem with Clear Benefiber in my morning coffee and a scoop of Super Seed w/water in the afternoon. (you can buy the super seed on Amazon.com it is the cheapest).
  • Choose your carbs wisely. Try to pick the carbs that will give you the lowest count of carbs, sugar and calories and the most fiber.

I hope this helps.
