Ingredients

• 0.5 cups Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 4 whole Eggs
• 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted)
• 3 tablespoons Maple syrup or honey
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cups Milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
• 0.25 cups Optional: Dried fruit (e.g., raisins, cranberries) or chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the melted coconut oil, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and milk until fully combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a thick, pasty batter forms. Coconut flour is very absorbent, so let the mixture sit for 1-2 minutes to thicken further.

Step 5

If using, gently fold in the dried fruit or chocolate chips.

Step 6

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop 6 evenly-sized mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet. The blobs should resemble scone-like shapes but don’t need to be perfect.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These scones pair wonderfully with butter, jam, or clotted cream.
