Ingredients

  • 2 cups Almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 cup Granulated erythritol (or preferred low-carb sweetener)
  • 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 unit Large egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup Blueberries (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated erythritol. Stir until well-mixed.

Step 3

Add the chilled, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and use a spatula to gently combine just until a dough forms. If using, gently fold in the blueberries.

Step 6

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a disk, approximately 7 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife, cut the disk into 8 equal wedges.

Step 8

Arrange the scones on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
