Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 tablespoon tapioca flour
• 1 tablespoon coconut flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
• 1 teaspoon orange zest

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, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, melt the coconut oil and then stir in the honey until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.

Step 6

Fold in the cranberries and orange zest, mixing gently just to incorporate.

Step 7

Turn the dough onto a flat surface dusted with a little extra almond flour. Shape into a flat round disk about 1 inch thick.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 equal wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Allow the scones 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. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
