Strawberry Scones
Gluten Free | Dairy Free | Grain Free | Nut Free | Paleo & Keto friendly
Ready in 40 minutes
Serves 8 scones
Only 13.7g Net carbs per scone with topping
Ingredients
1 cup coconut flour
1 cup golden flaxmeal
1/2 cup Bocha Sweet sweetener or coconut sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
4 tbsp coconut oil
1 egg
3/4 cup non dairy milk
Topping:
1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, loosely chopped
4 tbsp Bocha Sweet Sweetener or coconut sugar
1 tsp arrowroot powder
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 375F | Parchment lined baking sheet pan
In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, flaxmeal, sweetener, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk together until combined.
With a dough blender, blend in the coconut oil until the fats resemble the size of dimes.
Stir in the egg and the non dairy milk. Mix until it forms a dough.
Take the dough and place it on your prep table with a piece of parchment paper underneath it. Shape it into a big ball. Then flatten it down on your table to about 3/4"-1" thick disc.
Take a knife or bench scraper and cut it into 8 pieces. Place your scones on your sheet pan and space them about 1" apart.
Bake them for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on the top. Let them cool.
Make the topping:
In a saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, sweetener, and arrowroot. Toss them until the berries are coated.
Start cooking them on medium heat until the sauce starts to thicken. Let it cool down and top your scones with the strawberries. Enjoy!
Storage:
You can store these scones (not topped) in the freezer for up to 2 months in a freezer safe bag or container. They store in the fridge for about 4 days and just heat them back up in the oven for 15 minutes at 350F.
