Not too hard, not too soft. Not too sweet, not too bitter. My raspberry & lemon scones are a perfectly balanced sweet treat or a quick breakfast, filled with wonderful real fruit flavors.
Ingredients:
6oz raspberries, washed and frozen for about 20 minutes — The harder they are the easier it is to fold into the batter without making a big red mess.
2 cups almond flour
1/3 cup coconut flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup of honey, melted
3 eggs
Zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp of coconut sugar — for topping
Directions:
Set oven at 400.
Combine the dry ingredients (except coconut sugar) in a medium mixing bowl and mix well. Set aside.
Mix all wet ingredients in a separate medium mixing bowl, including the lemon zest.
Add the mixed wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and use a hand mixer to combine well.
Carefully fold the raspberries into the batter with a rubber spatula.
Spread the batter on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, spreading the batter evenly and about 1/3-1/2 inch thick across the baking sheet.
Sprinkle the coconut sugar across the top of the spread batter.
Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes then cut into whichever shape you wish.
Enjoy these scones with a cup of hot tea or coffee!
