Biscuit - Scones

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 :-)

  1. 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!

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