Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 medium Apple, peeled and diced
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and sea salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute the ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well blended.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Step 5

Add the diced apple to the mixture and gently fold in with a spatula. Sprinkle the lemon juice over the apples before folding to prevent browning.

Step 6

Dust your countertop with a bit of almond flour. Transfer the dough to the countertop and gently pat it into a circle about 1 inch thick.

Step 7

Use a knife or a dough cutter to cut the circle into 8 equal wedges.

Step 8

Carefully transfer each wedge to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your paleo apple cinnamon scones with a cup of tea or coffee!
