Ingredients
Scale
For the Scones
- 2 cups Almond Flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
- 4 tablespoons Melted Butter or Coconut Oil
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
Optional Add-ins
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Fresh Berries
- 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure the scones don’t stick.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder, stirring well to distribute the leavening evenly.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, maple syrup, and melted butter or coconut oil until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined to avoid overmixing and maintain lightness.
- Add Optional Ingredients: Carefully fold in any optional add-ins like chocolate chips, fresh berries, or lemon zest to enhance flavor and texture.
- Shape and Bake: Scoop the dough into approximately ¼ cup-sized mounds onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the scones turn golden brown on top and feel slightly firm when pressed.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the scones to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm with your preferred toppings or spreads.
Notes
- Use finely ground almond flour for the best tender texture.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep scones light and fluffy.
- You can substitute the egg with a flax egg to make the recipe vegan.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup or by adding sweet mix-ins like chocolate chips.
